Catholic Schools Week

This is a nationwide week of recognition to celebrate the gift of Catholic education, and it’s a special week for us as it is the first time we can mark the occasion at CtR with our very own Catholic school. Registration for our inaugural year at CtR Catholic School begins next week!

The theme is “Catholic Schools: Communities of Faith, Knowledge and Service.” The annual Catholic Schools Week celebration is a joint project of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA) and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). This year marks the 40th anniversary of the week, established in 1974 to recognize Catholic education as a great gift to the Church and the nation. Each day of the week is set aside for a specific celebration:
 

Sunday, Jan. 26:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Parish
Monday, Jan. 27:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Community
Tuesday, Jan. 28:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Students
Wednesday, Jan. 29:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Nation (National Appreciation Day For Catholic Schools)
Thursday, Jan. 30:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Vocations
Friday, Jan. 31:	Faith, Knowledge and Service: In Our Faculty, Staff and Volunteers (National Teacher Appreciation Day)
