St. Cecilia Catholic School will be hosting an in-person Open House for our school Admissions. Protecting the health & safety of our community is paramount, and at the same time we need to welcome interested new families onto our campus for admissions for next school year. Having interested families in-person on campus is a great way for us to show our campus and make interested new families feel welcome at St. Cecilia. To help minimize any possible exposure, Open House won’t take place during the school day or during a weeknight evening, but instead on Sunday, November 15th from 1PM to 4PM. Holding the event on Sunday will allow us to clean and sanitize on Friday evening as we already do, as well as on Sunday evening after the Open House prior to coming back to school the next day. We will have a sign up genius for interested families and a limited number of spaces available for sessions at 1PM, 2PM, and 3PM. We will be requiring interested families to let us know what grades they are interested in, and that will help us determine how many teachers from each grade level we will be asking to attend the Open House. Interested families will also be required to go through our self screening process, temperature check, and be required to wear masks during their time visiting our campus for Open House. We look forward to welcoming interested new families onto campus for this socially distanced opportunity for them to see what St. Cecilia is all about.

Additionally, virtual and a limited number of daily private in-person tours are also available. Please click here to register to attend Open House, or contact our Associate Director of Enrollment Management, Carol Mandola, to schedule a tour.

There are more families in need of food this Thanksgiving in Houston than any previous year, and we are trying to help. St. Cecilia is attempting to provide 800 bags filled with food for MEAL IN A BAG through East Spring Branch Food Pantry. We have 150 extra bags, which have not been picked up. You can stop by and grab a couple bags to fill from in front of the Parish Office between 9am & 5pm until they are gone. You can also click on this link and print the PDF to staple to any paper bag and fill it with the list of items. We will be receiving the filled bags on November 14th & 15th before and after each Mass. If you are not currently attending Mass, drive through anytime between 9am and 6pm on Sunday, November 15th, pop your trunk, and someone will grab your bags from your car. Everyone can HELP! If you have been blest, please fill a bag or two for those in need this Thanksgiving season.
