Spartan Families,


A Heartfelt Thanks to Our Spartan Families


As we wrap up conference week, I want to extend a sincere thank you to all of our wonderful parents for taking the time to meet with our teachers. Your dedication to your child’s education and partnership with our school community is invaluable. We know your schedules are busy, and we truly appreciate the opportunity to collaborate and discuss how we can continue to support your child’s growth academically, spiritually, and emotionally.

Thank you again for your time, care, and commitment to making Saint Michael Parish School such a strong family of families!


Explore the Value of K-12 Catholic Education: JPII Open House This Sunday


We are excited to share an incredible opportunity for our Saint Michael Parish School families! John Paul II High School is hosting their open house this Sunday, and we encourage all families to attend and explore the next step in their child’s Catholic education journey.

At JPII, much like at SMPS, the focus is on nurturing the whole child. In an environment steeped in Christian values, JPII develops young men and women who are intellectually strong, spiritually alive, and deeply committed to service. The JPII community feels much like our own “family of families,” and we are proud of the close connection between our schools.


Don’t wait until your child is in 8th grade to start thinking about high school—take a look now! Exploring JPII early allows your family to join this vibrant community with confidence, knowing their future is bright.


As a special incentive, any SMPS family who attends the JPII open house will receive a free dress coupon for their child or children! This offer is open to students in any grade, so we encourage everyone to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.

Join us in supporting the incredible value of K-12 Catholic education and see firsthand the spirit of excellence and faith that unites SMPS and JPII.
