Thank you to all of you who attended our Annual Grandparents’ Day on Friday! It was a packed house. From being greeted by our Nolan Catholic Marching Band, to stopping by the photo booth with your grandchildren, to enjoying performances by our Ballet Folklorico and Nolan Catholic’s Royelles Dance Team, to touring our 50-acre campus, we hope you enjoyed every part of the day and created some special memories with your grandchildren.


Whether you were able to attend Grandparents’ Day this year or not, we want you to know how much we appreciate your involvement and support of Nolan Catholic. Your contributions help sustain Nolan Catholic’s daily operations that tuition alone does not cover, helping ensure that we are able to continue delivering exceptional academics, spiritual formation and enriching experiences for your grandchildren and every other student at Nolan Catholic.

If you were not able to purchase a Grandparent Blessing, there is still time! With a $50 Grandparent Blessing donation, your grandchild(ren) will receive a special treat from you at school on Monday, December 15th — a sweet reminder of your love and support. Make their day a little brighter—and be part of this cherished tradition! Note: The last day to donate to ensure your grandchild(ren) receive their treat is December 9th.

Costa Rica Recap

Six days in one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth turned Nolan’s Ecology Honors students into true field biologists. From rainforest trails and river canals to sea turtle beaches and village schools, each day challenged them to slow down, look closely, and ask questions that turned simple moments into meaningful scientific data. Their cameras, notebooks, and iNaturalist logs captured not just wildlife—but curiosity, courage, and connection.


What follows is their story: the wildlife they discovered, the communities they served, and the unforgettable experiences that shaped their understanding of the world around them.

We also appreciate our auction volunteers, especially those on silent auction, already hard at work, with the goal of making our evening on February 14th one of the best ever!
