A Joyful Start to the School Year

The halls of Nolan Catholic were buzzing with energy as we welcomed students back to campus for another exciting year! A special welcome goes out to our freshman class, many of whom joined us from our partner schools across the Diocese. From first-day traditions to reconnecting with friends and teachers, the start of school is always a joyful reminder of the strong community that makes Nolan Catholic so special.

For our Future Viking families, this is just a glimpse of what awaits! A faith-filled community, with spirited traditions, and a place where students grow in knowledge and character from the moment they step on campus.

Join us for Future Viking Night at our home football game on Friday, September 5! All Future Vikings and their families are invited to experience the excitement of game night and cheer on the Vikings at Doskocil Stadium. Middle school students (6th–8th grade) will have the special opportunity to participate in activities with our Marching Band and Color Guard, Cheer, Royelles, and Football team. Check-in for participants will begin between 4 PM and 5:30 PM in Hartnett Arena lobby, depending on the activity. Come be part of the tradition, enjoy the Viking spirit, and see what it means to be a Viking!

Black Coffee Brotherhood

Recently, over 60 fathers and sons came together to re-mulch campus grounds—sharing yard work, coffee, and burgers along the way. The Brotherhood is about more than service projects; it’s about strengthening fathers through prayer and fellowship. Join us in the Nolan Catholic Chapel on Thursday, September 12 at 6:00 AM for Adoration & Scripture, a time to grow together in faith.

Mother's Mass

All mothers and grandmothers of Nolan Catholic and our diocesan schools' students are warmly invited to the first Mother’s Mass of the year on Thursday, September 26, at 8:15 AM in the Nolan Catholic Chapel. This special gathering is an opportunity to come together in worship and strengthen relationships within our Nolan Catholic and diocesan community. We encourage you to join us in prayer and fellowship.

Friday Adoration Has Begun

Today we joyfully began our Friday Adoration in the Mary, Mother of God Chapel! This beautiful tradition allows our students, faculty, and staff to pause and spend time with Our Lord throughout the school day.

To ensure Adoration continues each Friday, we invite parents to sign up as Parent Adorers. By offering just one hour, you help make this gift of prayer and presence possible for our community.

“Devotion to the Eucharist is the most noble... the sweetest, because the Lord is Sweetness Itself.” – St. Pope Pius X
