Congratulations to our eighth grade students on receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation on May 8th at St. Peters in Chains Cathedral. Bishop Joseph Binzer presided .

Eighth grade recently spent the day in Columbus, Ohio visiting the Ohio State House, Ohio Supreme Court, and COSI. They finished out the day at Dave & Busters for dinner and some games before heading back to Cincinnati. To see more photos, click on the article title.

Sixth grade students visited the The Cincinnati Museum Center today to view the Egypt exhibit. The exhibit explores the realities of daily life in ancient Egypt with the use of vivid interactive multimedia spaces, detailed models of once-lost cities and landscapes, and more than 350 original artifacts dating back over 4,500 years. While at The Museum Center, students also had the opportunity to visit the Holocaust and Humanity Center. Click on the article title to view more photos.

CONGRATULATIONS to our “Top 8” winners of the Pizza Hut Book It Challenge! These super readers each read over 10,000 minutes during the school year, with our top two reading over 43,000 minutes! Winners got the first pick of “Book It”prizes in the library this morning.

Many thanks to all of our school families that donated new and gently used books during Right to Read week. Over 1100 books were collected to be given to the Job and Family Services Center. As a reward for surpassing our goal of 1000 books, students were permitted to be out of uniform on Thursday, Aprl 18th.
