Check out the schedule for Catholic Schools Week in the flyer below

Check out our online calendar here.

Family Prayer 

Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Reading I : Deuteronomy 18:15-20

I will put my words into your mouth.

• In the Book of Deuteronomy, Moses conveys God's word to the people.
• The promise of God delivered by Moses is that God will raise up another prophet.
• The true prophet will deliver God's word.

Reading II : 1 Corinthians 7:32-35

I want you to be free of all worries.

• Some of the early Christian communities found Paul to be a true prophet.
• The Christians at Corinth apparently wrote to Paul, asking him a series of practical questions about how to live the Christian life.
• The First Letter to the Corinthians is Paul's answer to their questions.

Gospel : Mark 1:21-28

He has authority over all creation.

• The Gospels reveal Jesus to be the true prophet, the one who not only brings the word of God but who is the Word of God.
• In the first chapter of the Gospel of Mark, there are several stories illustrating Jesus' authority.
• Today's passage tells of Jesus casting out a demon. The people are amazed because the demon obeys Jesus.

A Message from

Mr. Oberdorf, Principal

Catholic Schools Week

Catholic Schools Week is here. Catholic Schools Week is designed to celebrate all the great things happening in our Catholic schools. It starts with our open house on January 27 from 2:00-4:00. Please stop in and say hi. The Home and School will also be hosting a spaghetti dinner for our school families following Mass on the 27th. Students who wear their school uniform and help or participate in our Open House, Mass, or spaghetti dinner will receive an out of uniform pass to be used in the month of February. 

Catholic Schools Week will be filled with activities for our students. Something will be happening each day. Please see the flyer in the Thursday folder for Catholic Schools Week special events.

Book Fair 

The Scholastic Book Fair is set up and ready for your child to purchase books. Students previewed the book fair today, Thursday, and created wish lists. The wish lists will be coming home with your child today. The list should include the book title and the price of the book. If you are interested in purchasing any of the books on your child’s wish list, please look on the back of the wish list for directions on how to set up an ewallet. You may also send cash to purchase books. For younger students, the cash should be placed in an envelope with your child’s name on the envelope. Please include a list of which books you wish to purchase. 

If you would like to visit the book fair and shop with your child our Friday shopping schedule is listed below. If you have multiple children, we will call them to the office to join you at the book fair. Please enter through door #6. 

Our book fair is open to purchase books Friday 1/26/24 8:00 AM-2:30 PM and  during our  Open House Saturday, 1/27/24 2:00 PM-4:00PM.

National Anthem at the Wave Game

Grades 3-8 parents:

Thank you to those who have committed their child to singing the National Anthem at the Milwaukee Wave soccer game on Feb 16.  This is going to be a great way to represent our school and highlight the beautiful singing voices of our students.  There is still time to add more singers.  Please consider purchasing Wave tickets for you and your child and joining us.  Mrs. Weyer needs to know the names of the singers that will be participating so please email her at aweyer@sje.school when you order your tickets.  This is a unique opportunity that we will not be given next year so we highly encourage all 3rd-8th singers to join us.  Here is the link to order tickets
