Jan. 29, 2019 – West Bend, WI – During the week Holy Angels in West Bend will join schools throughout the country in celebrating Catholic Schools Week. The local theme for the West Bend Catholic schools is “The Good News in Education.”
Catholic schools continue to be the good news in what schools can provide in a community of faith.
In addition to a strong core curriculum, there is a continued emphasis at Holy Angels on fine arts and world languages. Holy Angels students use a variety of technologies as tools for learning…junior high students use personal Chromebooks as part of their daily experience. The Project Lead the Way curriculum and Robotics Club offer pre-engineering components for junior high students. The Resource Learning Centers provide a multitude of enrichment opportunities and additional learning support.
Over and above the curriculum, Catholic faith is emphasized at Holy Angels. In fact, the Archdiocese of Milwaukee has awarded Holy Angels School with Exemplary Recognition in the area of Catholic Identity and Mission (see photo).
During Catholic Schools Week, students and staff will celebrate many of the important aspects of the school which make it special…academics, faith formation, extra-curriculars, community building, family involvement.
The week’s activities will include:
Tuesday – Career Day: guests are invited to share the wide range of career possibilities
Wednesday – Fun4All Day: students will be enjoying one of several venues in the community for tubing, skating (both roller and ice), and bowling.
Thursday – All-City Mass at Holy Angels (1:00pm) with Bishop Schuerman as the celebrant.
Friday – Student/Faculty Basketball Game (1:40pm).
Holy Angels School is now accepting registrations for the 2019-20 school year. Contact the school office (262-338-1148) for more information.
