Campus Ministry

Grandparents Mass is on October 23rd from 11:15-12:30. We are excited to announce that Archbishop McGovern will be celebrating mass with us. Doors open at 10:30. After Mass, our tradition continues go out to have lunch together and enjoy an afternoon off of school.

Twice a year we survey our students, faculty/staff, and school families in order to acquire data that gives us a clearer picture about areas of commendation and improvement. 


The results of this survey are very important and are reviewed by the administration, faculty, and staff. We also share the results of the survey with our community at large and use it for continuous improvement through our accreditation process.


Please keep the following in mind as you answer the items in this survey:

1. Consider the field trips, LIFE/Steubenville/WYD trips, retreats, Mission Days, and House/Homeroom activities that have been created to augment student's structured education.

2. Consider ways that student-voice has influenced school decisions - Latino Music, changes to uniform (sweatshirts, polos, Uggs, etc), academies, Student Council events.

3. Consider the actions and attitudes of adults in this building as a whole - Do you feel students are cared for, respected, known by the majority of adults in the building? Do you believe students have at least 1 adult at school that you would consider a trusted adult? 

4. Consider our weekly Masses, bi-annual Reconciliation services, and weekly Confession appointments. 

5. Consider time spent in chapel with classes or teams. Consider time spent with Guidance Counselors, Catholic Charities therapist, and/or Title teacher.


The survey will remain open until Oct 27th. THANK YOU!

Counselor's Corner

All Parents - October 15th was a big day at Gross. Every student participated in some kind of college and/or future planning events. Make sure you ask your student about what they did and what they thought about it? It was a great day for everyone!


Junior Parents - Mrs. McNamara is beginning her college and future planning lessons with the junior class. The lesson dates are Oct. 21, 28, and Nov. 4. Please ask your junior to tell/show you what they are doing. The assignments given during these lessons will be graded and included in the juniors' English grade. Late work will not be accepted. Please encourage your junior to complete their work on time.


Junior year is a year of investigation and research. It is time to visit and learn about colleges and other future options, take the ACT, polish the resume, and start searching for scholarships. Mrs. McNamara will be posting helpful resources in the class of 2027 Google classroom. Please ask your junior to log in and show you the information periodically.
