Tomorrow, April 10th, the students from both campuses will be coming together to see a dress rehearsal of Mary Poppins. We look forward to seeing you all at the actual performance, however, on the 11th. The students at both campuses have been working incredibly hard in order to bring this wonderful tale of musical theater to life! If you have any questions about the performance, please feel free to reach out to the main office at either campus. Please also remember that doors open at 5PM; the performance on Friday is at 6PM at the St. Matthew Campus. Seating is first come, first serve (except for the winner from the fundraiser of the front row; the second row, nearest the door, is also reserved for families who are assisting with the show).
This coming Sunday also marks Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday is a significant day in the Catholic Church as it marks the beginning of Holy Week, commemorating Jesus Christ's triumphant entry into Jerusalem. The waving of palm branches symbolizes the welcoming of Christ as King, while also foreshadowing the suffering He would soon endure. It serves as a reminder of the dual nature of Jesus’ mission—His kingship and His sacrifice for humanity’s salvation. As Catholics, we are called to reflect on both the joy of His arrival and the somber reality of His Passion. Palm Sunday invites us to prepare our hearts for the events of Holy Week and to deepen our faith in the journey toward Easter.
Track Practices
Track practices have officially begun at the Resurrection campus. I will be listing the upcoming week’s practices/meets here going forward – if there are any questions about a meet or practice, please contact Coach Logan Fink directly:

Volunteer Mass TOMORROW!
Please mark your calendars as April 10th will serve as our Volunteer Mass which will be held at the SMS campus. While we are aware that the Musical (Mary Poppins Jr) will also be holding a rehearsal that day, the great news is that we will be able to host the mass in the morning and then still have the rehearsal in the afternoon – a double-dose of great events happening at the SMS campus!
SMS Running Club
St. Matt’s Running Program will be starting on Thursday, May 1st. This program emphasizes fun and fitness and prepares students to run the Bellin 5K Race which will be held on Saturday, June 14th. This is a free program and all St. Matt’s students K-4 are welcome, but students younger than 2nd Grade will need a parent/adult volunteer to run with them (for safety purposes). The program will practice twice a week after school at St. Matt’s and the runs will take place outside. Practice dates are as follows: May 1, 7, 8, 12, 14, 19, 22, 28, and 29 along with June 2 and 4. To sign your child up or if you have questions, please contact Carrie Miller at 920-309-2444 or carrielmiller99@gmail.com.
