Re-Enrollment Update:


Dear BSS Families,


By now, all of our current families who usually do not apply for a scholarship have received a re-enrollment contract for the 2024-2025 school year. Our admissions office is currently working on sending out contracts for returning families who receive the NC Opportunity Scholarship. Late last year, the NC General Assembly expanded the NC Opportunity Scholarship, and now every family in NC (including all of our BSS families) can apply for a scholarship based on their income guidelines. If your family will apply for the scholarship for the first time, please let Mr. Rico know by mid-April once an award is offered and then accepted by the family and he will adjust your child's tuition rate accordingly. Do not delay in signing your contracts by your deadline and paying for the 2024-2025 enrollment fee as we are expecting an increase in new families seeking enrollment in our school (Even if your family will apply for the scholarship). Any questions, please send us an email at [email protected].

Actualización de reinscripciónes:


Estimadas familias de BSS,


A estas alturas, todas nuestras familias actuales que normalmente no solicitan una beca, ya han recibido un contrato de reinscripción para el año escolar 2024-2025. Nuestra oficina de admisiones está trabajando actualmente en el envío de contratos para las familias que regresan y reciben la Beca NC Opportunity. A fines del año pasado, la Asamblea General de Carolina del Norte amplió la Beca de Oportunidad de Carolina del Norte y ahora todas las familias de Carolina del Norte (incluidas todas nuestras familias BSS) pueden solicitar una beca según sus pautas de ingresos familiares. Si su familia solicitará la beca por primera vez, infórmeselo al Sr. Rico a mediados de abril una vez que la familia se le ofrezca la beca y despés acepte el premio, y el Sr. Rico ajustará la matrícula de su hijo/a en consecuencia. No se demore en firmar sus contratos antes de la fecha límite y pagar la tarifa de inscripción para 2024-2025, ya que esperamos un aumento de nuevas familias que buscan inscribirse en nuestra escuela (incluso si su familia solicitará la beca). Si tiene alguna pregunta, envíenos un correo electrónico a [email protected].

PE Footwear


Dear BSS Families:

As I have reminded all the middle school students, in order to participate in PE activities, students must have appropriate footwear. Sneakers (if you are from the north), and tennis shoes (if you are from the south) are required for PE class. Hey Dudes, as an example of shoes I continually see on PE days, are not supportive and safe for physical activity. Please remind your children to wear appropriate PE sneakers on PE days. We run, we jump, we move - A LOT! Long ago I requested special permission for PE days to allow any color sneaker that is supportive for athletic wear and tear, just for this purpose. If a student is not wearing appropriate PE shoes, he/she will not participate in class PE activiites, but will be doing a lot of push ups/sit ups or any variety of exercises I can come up with that will not require athletic footwear. 

Thank you for your help!

In Health,

Mrs. Champion

4th Grade Bees - Landform Project


Last Wednesday, January 17th in the afternoon, Mrs. Ortiz's Fourth Grade Bees presented their Landform projects to Mrs. Gomez. They were required to do research and become experts on their chosen landform. Once they were experts, students then created a diorama to share their knowledge. See if you can identify any of the famous landforms! One is the tallest mountain in the world! Another is a famous tourist destination in Arizona! We are very proud of their hard work! 💙💛

Competition Cheer 2023-24


UPDATE 01/07/2024:

Dear Cheer Parents,


       Shamrock is rapidly approaching, and the girls are working very hard to be ready. We have experienced some challenges this year with our practice schedule and injuries. Starting tomorrow Monday, January 8, we are going to extend practice by 30 minutes, so we will be in the gym from 3:30-5:00.  We are hoping that doing this will keep us from having to have extra practices. We understand that this might not be convenient for everyone, but this is, unfortunately, necessary for the girls to be ready to compete. We are going to be flexible as we know this is coming to you with short notice, but PLEASE, if at all possible, we need your cheerleader to be at practice. At this point, it truly impacts the whole team when one person is missing. If this is simply not an option for you, please let us know.


Additionally, there is an opportunity for the cheerleaders to compete in the Scott Cheer Classic on Feb 24  at 1:00 at IHM (Immaculate Heart Of Mary Catholic School-4145 JOHNSON ST HIGH POINT, NC 27265)

Please let us know ASAP if your cheerleader is available on that date and able to come to the competition by clicking HERE and filling out a short Google form.


Thank you so much for your flexibility and your support!

Kelly Spradlin and Elizabeth Tichy

All existing families who have not requested financial aid in the past will start to receive an enrollment contract via DocuSign. Space is very limited for some grades and priority will be given to all returning families. Please do not delay in signing a contract once you receive it to secure a spot for your child. After signing, the system will ask you to pay the $265.00 enrollment fee. Review the letter above for deadlines. You will receive an email from FACTS once Mr. Rico sets up your automatic tuition payment drafts if you choose to pay via this option.


If your family is going to apply for the NC Opportunity Scholarship, and your family is a recipient once the NCSEAA notifies families in April 2024, PLEASE let Mr. Rico know so that he can adjust your tuition with the correct award amount (scroll down for more info).

  • Copy of the student's birth certificate
  • Copy of the student's immunization records
  • If the family is Catholic, a copy of the student's certificate of baptism.

We have new Corporate Sponsorship Opportunities for the 2023-2024 school year. We would love to help promote your business, while you support our school! 


Money raised during the 2022-2023 school year was used for several major and unexpected expenses. We are in the process of replacing our 26-year-old Fire Alarm System at the Main Campus. We also replaced and repaired flooring in several areas of the building. A few rooms also received new paint!


Due to increased enrollment, we purchased 100 new Chromebooks for our students. None of these things would have been possible without the support of our community!

If you or someone you know owns a business and would like to partner with our school, contact us today! 


I look forward to working with you! Contact me with me any questions!

Box Tops For Education

No more clipping. No more sending Box Tops to school. All you need is your phone. Download the ALL-NEW Box Tops app, shop as you normally would, then simply scan your store receipts to find participating products. The app will automatically credit Blessed Sacrament School's Box Tops earnings online. Click here for a video of how it works.

Twice a year, your school will receive a check and can use that cash to buy whatever it needs! If you see this label, use the new Box Tops app to scan your receipt. Box Tops are still worth 10¢ each for your school. CLICK HERE

Link your Lowes Card

With Cart to Class, Lowes Foods will give up to a quarter of a million dollars to local schools this year. To participate, just enroll Blessed Sacrament School on your Fresh Rewards card, and start earning for our school. Click Here
Link your Harris Teeter VIC Card

When you shop Harris Teeter brands, a percentage of your purchase is donated to Blessed Sacrament School if your VIC card is linked.
You link your card online (CLICK HERE), or you can ask your cashier to link your VIC card by providing our TIE code 1704.
