This is an extra-curricular activity that takes place after school hours.  The program begins in October and ends in the Spring with a dance recital.  Dance lessons are held once a week in the gym by a certified dance instructor.  There is a cost for those that participate in the program. Registration is in the early Fall.

Each month we honor our teachers for their hard work and dedication to our children.  The teachers enjoy the special luncheons and treats provided by the Teacher Appreciation Committee.

This event is held at the beginning of the school year to help facilitate friendship between children and families as they begin their Blessed Sacrament journey.  A dinner is provided along with entertainment for the children.  The event is usually hosted by the first grade parents.

We celebrate Halloween with a parade at 12:30p.m. and classroom parties immediately following the parade.  Parents are encouraged to attend this fun-filled event. 

Please keep children from wearing costumes which may depict or represent violence.  Absolutely NO weapons for props are allowed.
