This has been another outstanding week at St. Roch Catholic School, and it is not over yet! Last night, our 4th Grade Gold Volleyball team won a City Title. They defeated a tough Nativity team in the semi-finals, and went on to beat an even tougher Holy Name team for the championship. The girls worked hard all season, so this is a much deserved victory! Members of the team include Bella Johnson, Cicily Borders, Peyton Kocher, Ava Kress, Jamie Smith, Mirabella Gaskill, and Anna Carothers. The Rockets were coached by Mrs. Karen Kiefer and Mrs. Terese Blackmon.
As our week continues, tomorrow Caitlin Pooler will travel to IUPUI and compete in the next round of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Caitlin advanced to this round by winning her area competition a few weeks ago. If she wins tomorrow, she will advance to the National Bee in Washington, DC. Good Luck, Caitlin!
Tomorrow, our Cadet Wrestlers will compete for their chance to earn a City Title. Several of those same boys will then come straight to St. Roch to prepare for the 8th Grade Play that they have been working hard on for several weeks.
This week has been a great example of Rockets living our motto “ Trust God, Work Hard and Work TOGETHER! Have a great weekend.
