WE DID IT, WILDCATS!
As we reflect on St. Luke's Give Day 2026, our hearts are filled with gratitude!
Thanks to the overwhelming generosity and support of our St. Luke's community, Give Day 2026 was an incredible success, and we EXCEEDED our $65,000 goal!
And we owe it all to YOU!
To our parents, grandparents, alumni, faculty, staff, Board of Trustees, former Board of Trustees, and friends of St. Luke's - THANK YOU! Whether you made a gift, shared a post, encouraged others to participate, or helped spread the word, you played an important role in making this day so special.
As we celebrated 65 years of St. Luke's, we were reminded once again of what makes our school truly extraordinary. It's not just our classrooms, programs, or traditions. It's the people who believe in our mission, love our school, and come together to make a difference.
We are incredibly grateful to be part of a community that shows up, gives back, and believes so deeply in St. Luke's future.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making Give Day 2026 a success!
65 Years. Countless Stories.
Honoring our past. Investing in our future.
THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF OUR STORY!

CELEBRATING ST. LUKE'S DAY ON THE JAPONICA CAMPUS
On Wednesday, our St. Luke's community came together to celebrate the Feast of Saint Luke, the patron saint of physicians, surgeons, and artists. Known for his contributions to the New Testament as the author of the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles, Saint Luke is also remembered as a physician and companion of St. Paul during his missionary journeys.
To honor this special day, our Japonica Campus students proudly paraded to chapel carrying
their class banners.
What a meaningful way to celebrate our school's namesake, honor our traditions, and come together as one St. Luke's family!

A SHOUT-OUT FOR MAKING GREAT CHOICES
We love celebrating our Wildcats for doing great things on the Japonica Campus!
Students who are spotted making good choices, showing kindness, demonstrating respect, or going out of their way to help a student or adult may earn a special Wildcat Shout-Out!
During Chapel, Mrs. Wallace recognizes these students and gives each one a Shout-Out card to take home and proudly share with their families.
It’s one more way we can celebrate the everyday choices that make our school community such a special place. Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness and character can make the BIGGEST difference!
Keep it up, Wildcats - you never know when YOU might earn the next Shout-Out!
