Henley earned her school title and then took on Father Joseph in an epic final showdown. It came right down to the wire, but Henley came out on top! ✋✊✌️
This joyful moment is a reminder that simple games can spark big joy. Through laughter, friendly competition, and togetherness, we lived out what Jesus and the saints show us so well, sharing joy, building community, and loving one another in the everyday moments. Sometimes the holiest moments are the happiest ones 💛
Way to go, Henley! Thanks for reminding us all that spreading joy is a powerful way to walk with Jesus every day.
Todays Saint Highlight: Saint Patrick ☘️
As we come to the close of Catholic Schools Week, our hearts are full of gratitude. Today was a joyful reminder of who we are as a SPCS family, gathered together in faith, friendship, and fun.
We began our day celebrating Mass, thanking God for the gift of our school and for the many blessings He pours out on our community. Just as St. Patrick trusted God to guide him and boldly shared his faith, we are reminded to live our faith with courage, joy, and love each day.
Throughout the day, we laughed and connected as one family, matching together in school spirit, playing games, and dancing the afternoon away. These moments of joy reflect what St. Patrick taught us: that faith is meant to be lived, shared, and celebrated together.
Above all, we give thanks to God for the opportunity to attend a Catholic school, a place where we are blessed to learn, love, and light the way, walking with Jesus every day.
Thank you to our students, staff, families, and parish for making Catholic Schools Week so meaningful. May we continue to carry this joy, faith, and gratitude with us long after this week ends. 💚☘️
Todays Saint Highlight: St. John Bosco
Saint John Bosco dedicated his life to teaching and caring for children, and he believed that learning should happen in joyful, welcoming spaces.
Our movie and popcorn party reflects his vision—a time to relax, laugh together, and build community. 🍿🎬
Thank you to the families who generously donated funds to purchase supplies for our classroom popcorn parties. 🍿
Four Great Things About SPCS
#3 Caring Community
Our school is a safe and supportive environment where every child is known, valued, and loved. Classrooms foster respect, kindness, teamwork, communication, and a strong sense of belonging for all students.
Our Rock, Paper, Scissors Challenge at SPCS has been a joyful reminder of the spirit of St. Teresa of Calcutta, who taught us to do small things with great love. Through simple moments of play, laughter, and friendship, our students shared joy and kindness with one another.
Our JK friends just learned how to play the game and practiced with their friends, celebrating smiles, turn-taking, and having fun together. Meanwhile, students in Kindergarten through Grade 5 took the excitement to the next level, enjoying classroom battles filled with friendly competition and great sportsmanship. Each classroom proudly crowned a Rock, Paper, Scissors Champion.
But we’re not done yet! This Friday, during our school Dance Party, all classroom champions will face off to determine the ultimate SPCS Rock, Paper, Scissors Champion. The energy is building, and the competition is sure to be fierce (and fun!).
We’ve also heard that Father Joseph currently holds the title of Staff Rock, Paper, Scissors Champion… so who knows? Maybe our school champion will earn the chance to face him in an epic Rock, Paper, Scissors showdown!
What a great reminder that even the simplest games can bring us together in joy, faith, and community.
Todays Saint Highlight: St. Teresa of Calcutta
Students enjoyed a Glow Prayer Walk today, taking time to pause, pray, and reflect in a peaceful and meaningful way. 💡🙏
During the walk, students offered prayers for our community, the world, others, and themselves, recognizing that prayer, like light, can reach far beyond what we see. The glow lights symbolized how even small acts of prayer, kindness, and love can shine brightly, lighting the way as we walk with Jesus every day. ✨💛

#1 Strong in Faith
Faith is at the center of all we do at St. Patrick Catholic School. Students are encouraged to walk with Jesus every day through prayer, service, and spiritual formation, building a strong foundation for a lifelong relationship with God.
Today our students enjoyed a faith-filled STEAM mini-retreat after a weather-related reschedule, and it was a hit!
From science explosions exploring God’s powerful creation, coding Bee-Bots through Bible verses, engineering strong churches, creating a schoolwide art piece of a rainbow representing God’s promise, to math connected to the loaves and fishes, every station sparked joy and learning.
Students loved it so much they’re already asking when the next one is! 💛🌈
