| Dear St. Anne Catholic School Families,
Happy Valentine’s Day! We are thrilled to congratulate our varsity boys' basketball team for earning 2nd place in the archdiocese—what an incredible achievement! They have made us all proud. Go Crusaders!
A big thank you to everyone who participated in Steps for Students. We are honored to have won the School Spirit Award! Thank you to Mrs. Cruz,
Mrs. Feldman and our cheerleaders for their dedication to school spirit. The event was a success, and we appreciate the dedication of our parent chair,
Mrs. Bosch, as well as Mr. Devore and Mr. Apt for preparing delicious breakfast tacos for all.
Looking ahead to next week, Monday is a school holiday. Our staff will be attending the Archdiocesan Day of Prayer. Please keep the faculty and staff in your prayers. On Friday we will have STREAM Day, with a noon dismissal. On STREAM Day we will celebrate Go Texan Day and students may wear their western wear. We are excited to host our 40th Anniversary Gala, on Saturday, a special evening dedicated to celebrating four decades of faith, academic excellence, and community at St. Anne Catholic School. This milestone is a testament to the dedication of our teachers, students, families, and alumni who have shaped our school’s legacy. The evening will feature dinner, dancing, and opportunities to support our school’s future. We look forward to celebrating this momentous occasion with all of you!
Thank you for being a part of our St. Anne family. Enjoy the long weekend!
Sincerely in Christ,
Kendall Shamas, Ed.D. Principal | | |
