Announcements & Reminders

  • Homecoming Appreciation

    The Blessed Sacrament Catholic School community extends our appreciation to Mr. Torres and Ms. Villarreal for their help in coordinating this year's Homecoming Week! We also thank the parents, guardians, and grandparents who attended the many events and activities this week!

  • Eighth Grade Retreat

    The Eighth Grade Class will be attending their MO Ranch Retreat this Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in Hunt, Texas. It is an opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments and define their role as leaders of our parish school. Fr. Chris, Mrs. Padilla, Mr. Carrillo, Mrs. Kokotaljo, and I will be joining them. Please keep us in your prayers as we "escape" from the craziness of our world and enjoy God's creation.

  • Solidarity Day

    This Tuesday, the Archdiocese of San Antonio's Catholic Schools will be celebrating our 6th Annual Solidarity Day as we are United in Faith, Hope, and Love Against Bullying. All faculty, staff, and students in the Archdiocese of San Antonio are asked to wear ORANGE to show our individual and collective commitment to ending bullying at all age levels. We invite our students and staff to wear an ORANGE shirt or t-shirt with blue jeans, blue jean shorts, cargo shorts, or Capri's and tennis shoes. We humbly ask that if a student wears the t-shirt that is be predominately orange showing this is not a "free dress day", but rather a call to solidarity.

  • Blessing of the Animals

    The Blessing of the Animals will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 6, 2022. Students may bring a picture of their pet, or a stuffed animal, or have their parents bring their pets for the prayer service. For the safety of our students, all animals must be on a leash or in a traveling crate or cage. Parents may check-out their students following the prayer service without penalty.

  • Early Dismissal

    On Friday, Blessed Sacrament Catholic School will dismiss students at 12:30 p.m. Both lunch and after school care will be provided, but we kindly ask that you contact the School Office at (210) 824-3381 if you will be needing ASC so that we can plan accordingly. The Faculty and Staff will gather at 1:00 p.m. for a Professional Development Workshop.

  • Mass Greeters

    Students in Third Grade through Eighth Grade must serve at two (2) masses each semester. Students must serve, in Mass uniform, as a greeter at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church or as an altar server at either the 8:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m. or 12:15 p.m. Masses. Parents and guardians are asked to sign-up their students using our Mass Greeter Scheduler. If you need to change your time, please contact Mrs. Lindsay Clavare at (210) 824-3381 or lclavere@blessedschool.com.
