St. Catherine's High School students participated in the Save A Life Tour on Wednesday, March 30. Check out the story in the Journal Times!
Bilingual Admissions Coordinator Cintia Sanchez visited John Paul II Academy this week, seeing the FAB Lab and Peace Circles in person. the FAB Lab introduces students to fabrication as a part of creating and learning. Peace Circles allow students to better understand the impact that words and actions have on others. One example used was taking a paper heart and ripping it to illustrate how you can put the heart back together, but it will never quite be the same.
The combined St. Rita/St. Joseph 8th grade basketball team became the first Racine team to reach the championship game of the Padre Serra tournament, coming in second to Holy Apostles. Congratulations on an amazing season, Royals/Blue Jays!
