Attendance Matters at Weekend Mass Too! 🙏✨
Your children cherish the time they spend with you, and that includes moments of prayer. As we continue our journey through this school year, we encourage our families to make a joyful commitment to attend weekend Mass together. Let's grow in faith and love as a community—because our children learn best by seeing the example of prayer in our homes and hearts. 💒❤️

From small-group discussions with the central office staff to visits in classrooms, the students, staff and families are being formed in their call to be missionary disciples. Central to the Christian life is the call of Jesus to “go, therefore, and make disciples” — Matthew 28:19.

💙Today was the FIRST dart day of the school year! Students who "acted like a Knight" throughout the month of September had their name on a Knight card on the wall in the Gym. Students were recognized for practicing virtues, responsibility and/or faithfulness. We had nearly 300 students who acted like a Knight in September! Mr. Bachmeier threw 6 darts. We had special guests, O'Gorman High School Homecoming king & queen in attendance to also throw darts. The cards of students that were "hit" by the dart received special recognition as well as a prize from Mr. Bachmeier. To say that we are proud of ALL of our students who acted like a Knight in September is an understatement! 💙
We can't wait to keep celebrating Knight-like behavior all year long!

With bucket, broom, and trusty mop,
You chase the crumbs and spills that drop.
Lockers sparkle and floors all shine,
Trash cans emptied right on time.
Dust bunnies scatter when you come through,
We are all so grateful for you! Thank you to Todd & Dan for ALL of your hard work! Happy National Custodian Appreciation Day!

The 3rd graders were able to have the fire house come to our school and learn about what to do if there is a fire at their home. They got to practice checking the door and then safely making their way out a window! Thank you Sioux Falls Fire Rescue for teaching our 3rd graders today!
