    The Eighth Grade Class will be attending their MO Ranch Retreat this Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in Hunt, Texas.

Please keep us in your prayers as we "escape" from the craziness of our world and enjoy God's creation.

  • Parent Education Night

    Join us this Tuesday at 6 p.m. for an enlightening evening of Parent Education Night! We’ll dive into two crucial topics: “A Child’s Brain” and “Internet Safety.” Think of it as a brainy power hour—perfect for boosting your knowledge while we help keep those little safe online! Mark your calendars, and let’s make sense of it all together. Your child's brain and the internet will thank you! Please RSVP to help us plan our evening!

  • Halloween

    On Halloween Day (Thursday, October 31st), students will be able to come to school in costume so long as they follow the guidelines: (1) Costume Masks and Make-Up May Be Worn So Long as It Does Not Disrupt Behavior, (2) Students Must Be Able to Go to the Bathroom Without Assistance in Taking Off Their Costume, and (3) Weapon Accessories (Knives, Guns, Swords, etc.) May NOT be Brought to Campus. Additionally, it must be an actual costume and not look like a "Free Dress Day". Students may also elect to come to school in their School Uniform or wear their Día de los Bulldog T-Shirt (Past and Present Years) with Blue Jeans and Tennis Shoes.

  • All Saints Day

    Our weekly School Mass will take place on Friday, November 1, 2024. This is a Holy Day of Obligation and all Catholics are obligated to attend Mass.

    On this Holy Day of Obligation, we would like our students to celebrate the holy men and holy women who have gone before us. We invite all students to dress as their FAVORITE SAINT on Friday, November 1st. This is our opportunity as a Catholic School to bring our faith alive. If a student will not be participating, then they must wear their Mass Uniform.

    All families are invited to Fr. Johnson Lê's Installation Mass on Saturday, November 2, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller will be the Celebrant. Consider attending this special Mass as we celebrate the gift of Fr. Johnson's leadership at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church and School.

Parents can order directly on their Crave-It Account (Guide How to Order a Thanksgiving Meal). As always, families may choose to bring in their own food to eat during the Thanksgiving Luncheon. An email will be sent out on November 1, 2024, so that families can begin choosing what table they would like to sit at during their designated lunch period.
