St. Dominic Celebrates Catholic Schools Week

From January 27 - February 2 students will be celebrating Catholic Schools Week with fun events like a reptile petting zoo and pajama day.

This week the students at St. Dominic School are celebrating Catholic Schools Week (CSW).  CSW is organized and promoted by the National Catholic Educational Association.  

The theme for the National Catholic Schools Week 2013 is “Catholic Schools Raise the Standards.” The annual observance starts the last Sunday in January and runs all week, which in 2013 is January 27 to February 2. Schools typically celebrate Catholic Schools Week with Masses, open houses, and other activities for students, families, parishioners, and the community at large. - from the NCEA website

Catholic Schools Week at St. Dominic School is a week filled with fun activities and out-of-the-norm learning experiences for the students.  These activities include dress-up days, Bingo, a visit from Mayor Dana Graham, a Reptile Petting Zoo, a spaghetti dinner on Thursday and an all school Mass on Wednesday morning. CSW culminates with a Family Fun Night on Friday where students and parents can enjoy popcorn, a movie, and open gym from 6:30-8:30pm.
