Interactive Eucharistic Miracles Exhibit


The Interactive Eucharistic Miracles Exhibit is coming to Holy Family, and we still need help to share the exhibit with our students! The Exhibit will be on our campus on April 14th, 15th, and 16th during Holy Week. Each miracle station will have a visual display, audience participation play, or interactive display to draw children into the cornerstone of our Catholic faith – Jesus’ True Presence in the Eucharist.

 

All of our PreK - 5th grade classes will visit the exhibit twice during the 3 days. Volunteer storytellers and helpers are needed for each station. Training will be provided, along with a script and all materials. We also need volunteers to help pick up the materials from St. William’s Catholic Church on April 11 and then return them on April 17, as well as volunteers to set up and take down the displays. 

Volunteer Here

Attention all 4th and 5th graders!

The Holy Family Run with the Angels Coming Soon! Save these Dates!”

 

We're excited to introduce this year's Run with the Angels event. Our goal this year is to raise $90,000 for the general fund to benefit ALL students at Holy Family Catholic School. We are working on purchasing new and exciting Science and Religion instructional materials (hands-on science kits and religious manipulatives). Meeting our fundraising goals will significantly increase our ability to purchase these items for all pertinent grade levels vs. a grade level at a time over several years. 

 

We’re excited to partner with Booster once again for this fundraising experience because it offers 3 important things to our school community:

 

     1️⃣ User-friendly fundraising platform

     2️⃣ Character and values enrichment program

     3️⃣ Fitness-focused event that includes ALL of our students

 

As a family, you will work together asking friends and family to donate on your student’s Donation Page at MyBooster.com. The best part is, you can still support our school just by SHARING about the fundraiser!

 

Students will also experience an amazing character and value enrichment program called “Castle Quest”, teaching students about how to be brave and live with strong moral character.
