Catholic Schools Week has always been my favorite week of the school year. I have been blessed to only know catholic education my entire life. Through the sacrifice, love and support of my parents, I have always been able to freely worship and talk about my faith.
St. Roch Catholic School is indeed a special place.
We are blessed with loving and hard-working students, supportive parents, and a staff that is out of this world. Our teachers and support staff work hard everyday to make our students feel loved and appreciated so that they can learn and grow. Our building is alive with love and laughter, and I am blessed to call this wonderful school my home.
As we celebrate Catholic Schools Week, please know that the sacrifices you make to send your children here do not go unnoticed. Thank you for supporting our teachers and staff with your kind words, and most importantly the gift of sharing your children with us. During this week, we celebrate the gift of our faith, and the gift to be able to freely talk about, and worship God in everything that we do. Thank you for sharing in this journey with us. As we continue to celebrate our school, we will continue to follow our motto:
Trust God, Work Hard and Work Together.
