A Season of Hope, a Future of Promise

Sunday, November 30, 2025

Blessed Sacrament Families, Today our Church enters the holy Season of Advent, a time set apart for quiet preparation as we await the coming of Christ at Christmas. These four weeks invite us to slow down, to make room in our hearts, and to welcome the hope that only Christ can bring. While Lent leads […]

Announcements & Reminders

  • Cold Winter Dress Days

    This week, the National Weather Service has issued advisories for cooler than usual weather for the San Antonio area. Cold Winter Dress Days will be announced when local weather is predicted to affect student health and safety given the outdoor nature of our school campus. Cold Winter Dress Days will be announced via FACTS SIS Text Messaging, Remind App Messaging, School Emails, and Social Media Posts.

    This week, girls may wear solid blue, solid black or khaki pants with their uniform top. Denim, denim-like, leggings, or warm-ups may not be worn. School shoes must be worn. Boys may wear a solid red, solid white or solid blue long-sleeve t-shirt under their school polo.

  • ESA Advisory Committee

    As explained at our November Bulldog Family Night, I have established an ESA Advisory Committee to assist me in preparing our campus for the Texas Education Freedom Accounts (TEFA) implementation at Blessed Sacrament Catholic School. Subcommittee Meetings will take place with a virtual meeting in December, then monthly meetings beginning in January 2026. Those interested in serving in this important capacity are asked to submit their interest form using the link above.

  • Catholic Life Raffle Tickets

    Catholic Life Raffle Tickets will be distributed to students on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, and are due back to the School Office by Tuesday, January 20, 2026. This is budgeted income for our school's operational budget and the only required fundraiser for our families. Families will see a Catholic Life Raffle Charge on their FACTS Tuition Account scheduled for January 31, 2026. Once ticket stubs and money is brought to the School Office, Mrs. Martinez will reconcile your family's account.

    We will arrange for any student to sell their Catholic Life Raffle Tickets at Masses during two designated weekends. Students who sell tickets during these weekends must be in School Uniform.

  • Christmas Wear

    In the spirit of building community and celebrating Christmas, students and staff members may begin wearing Santa Hats, Christmas Socks and/or Elf & Reindeer Ears beginning Monday, December 1, 2025. All we ask is that they not become a classroom distraction and may not be worn in Church. Also, items should be clearly marked with your child's name and grade level. Blessed Sacrament is not responsible for lost items.

  • Student Health Testing

    On Thursday, students will have their annual health testing as required by the State of Texas. In addition to their height and weight, students will have their vision and hearing tested. An Acanthosis Nigerians Screening, pre-diabetes screening, will also be conducted. If your student wears contact lenses or eyeglasses, please have them wear it on Thursday to avoid any inconsistences in testing. Please contact the School Office if you have any questions.

  • Early Dismissal

    On Friday, students will dismiss at 12:30 p.m. so that our Faculty and Staff can gather for an Advent Retreat. Both lunch and After School Care (ASC) will be provided.

  • Forever Grateful Project

    Each year, the families of Blessed Sacrament Catholic School adopt the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament (OVISS). These religious sisters, based out of Victoria and San Antonio, were responsible for administering and sustaining our school for over 30 years! Despite the challenges of our economy, we want to continue this tradition ensuing these faithful women are not forgotten. We invite you to visit our 2025 Forever Grateful Project to see a list of this year's sisters and their wish lists. Gifts are due to the School Office by Thursday, December 18, 2025.
