Happy Thursday! It is good to be back in school. Tomorrow is our First Friday of the month here at school, so we will start the day off with Mass. The church will then be open for the entire day for Eucharistic Adoration, so at some point, all of our students and staff will head over to the church to spend a little bit of time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Families are then invited to come to First Friday Devotions tomorrow evening, which include Adoration, pra

We are ever so grateful for their commitment to Catholic educati

Happy Thursday! Wow! What a wonderful spring program! Tomorrow is Fun Day. Mrs. Davis has been working hard this week to coordinate the activities for tomorrow.

Happy Thursday! Our junior high students, along with three of our teachers and Deacon Jim, spent this week in Washington, D.C. The school was a bit lonely without them, but we have enjoyed updates and pictures from them to stay connected!

These students are the ICS Class of 2035, which is somewhat difficult to fa

Happy Thursday! This evening begins the Holy Triduum--the most holy days of the liturgical year.

As is tradition, during the Easter Vigil, new members are welcomed into the Catholic Church. This year, we are welcoming the Baptista Family
