Passion of Christ Strengthen Me

Catholic Schools Week is always a special time of year. This year, the week seemed to have more meaning and a bigger impact as we continue to make our way through a unique year with its different hurdles and challenges. As a school, we are extremely grateful and proud that we have been able to be attending school in person and are able to continue to offer an excellent, Catholic education.

The Scholastic Art Contest results recently were announced. There were almost 2,200 entries. There were a total of 848 awards given. There were 209 Golds, 254 Silvers and 385 Honorable Mentions. We are thrilled that Bishop Neumann had an all-time HIGH of eight winners!

Congratulations to Danielle Blum and Carlee Zwick the winners of a Photorealism contest for Art 3 and Art 4. They selected a picture and created it twice as big. The work was judged by faculty and staff at the end of finals on Friday. Danielle placed first and Carlee won second place! They are pictured with their prizes.

7 Bishop Neumann students were scheduled to attend the March for Life in Washington DC. For the first time in 48 years the March decided to instead go virtual.  These students instead traveled to Aquinas High School in David City to listen to speakers from Justice for All and learn how to defend the pro-life cause.  They were also able to watch the virtual March together.  We hope and pray that someday the abortion issue will be overturned.

30 Bishop Neumann junior and senior high students joined thousands in Lincoln at the Nebraska Walk for Life standing for the unborn.

Bishop Neumann’s lenten challenge this year is to spread kindness to others. Students collected quarters and delivered donuts to Wahoo Police, Saunders County Sheriff departments and Saunders Medical Center. A special thank you to them for always going above and beyond for our community.

Congratulations to Cade Lierman who finished 3rd and Aaron Ohnoutka who finished 5th at State Wrestling.

Congratulations to senior Kyra Scanlon who placed 3rd in both Entertainment and Humorous Prose and senior Rebecca Hart who placed 6th in Poetry at State Speech!

The Bishop Neumann Scarlet Knights traveled to the Harvard Cardinal & Black Show Choir Contest! Everyone was so excited and grateful to do one contest this year. What a great feeling to perform our entire show - even if it was just for 3 judges, 2 parents, who drove the bus and helped with equipment, and a couple other people helping run the event. Start strong - finish strong! Bringing home the GOLD!

St. Wenceslaus students in 3^rd through 6^th grade recently spent a week doing their best on Iowa Assessment testing. The theme this year was “Standardized Tests: Hit it out of the Park!” Parents were asked to write letters of encouragement to their child(ren) and students were surprised with Cracker Jacks as a snack during testing! While these tests are only a snapshot of one week of testing and does not always reflect a student’s daily homework and regular tests, it does help us as a school make sure we are covering all curriculum in a timely manner compared to other schools across the state and the country. Congratulations to all the students for making sure they were well rested, well nourished and put forth their best effort! As always we are anxious to review the test results in the coming weeks.

Unexpected visitors – the police where driving past St. John’s when the kids were outside at recess. They stopped in and let the kids see the inside of the police car, gave them stickers and answered lots of questions.

St. Johns had a pajama day where the whole school wore their pj’s to school!

It was so much fun!
