Catholic Schools Week – Jan 26-Feb 1

The annual observance of National Catholic Schools Week starts the last Sunday in January and runs all week, which in 2025 is January 26th to February 1st. Schools typically celebrate with Masses, open houses and activities for students, families, parishioners, and the community at large. The theme for Catholic Schools Week 2025 is “United in Faith and Community.” As communities of faith, Catholic schools instill in students their destiny to become saints. Academic excellence is the hallmark of Catholic education intentionally directed to the growth of the whole person – mind, body and spirit. Service is fundamental to Catholic education and the core of Catholic discipleship. Service is intended to help form people who are not only witnesses to Catholic social teaching, but also active participants through social learning.
