    The 40th annual Light the Way Holiday Festival, presented by H-E-B, is Saturday, November 21, 2026! We can't wait to kick off the holiday season with you, San Antonio! All are invited to come see our Blessed Sacrament Light the Way Choir perform at Light the Way at 3:00 p.m. Please visit the UIW's Light the Way Information Page for more information and the event's complete schedule of activities.

  • Happy Thanksgiving

    Happy Thanksgiving! Blessed Sacrament Catholic School will be closed Monday, November 23, 2026, through Friday, November 27 2026, for the Thanksgiving Holiday. It is my prayer that this time of rest and relaxation will be used to build memories, spent time with family, rest, play, and just give God glory and praise for the many blessings He has given us!

    A Mass of Thanksgiving will be offered on Thursday, November 26, 2026, at 8:00 a.m.

  • 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, November 30, 2026. 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.
