It has been a busy start to the New Year at St. Katharine Drexel Academy.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Among some of the highlights to date:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Open House<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span>– St. Katharine Drexel Academy (SKDA) hosted its annual Open House on Sunday, Jan. 29 from 10 a.m. until 12 pm.

Catholic Schools\u2019 Week <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span>– Open House kicked off an exciting week at SKDA\u2026 Catholic Schools\u2019 Week. This event is celebrated across the nation where all Catholic schools focus on what makes us special. The three tenants of a Catholic school are faith, service and excellence. During Catholic Schools\u2019 Week, each day is devoted to serving part of our school community, such as parents, teachers, those in need, and our students. Each day also has a fun theme for the students to dress up, such as Pajama Day, Sports Day and Favorite Color Day. It\u2019s always a wonderful week to celebrate what makes our school special and ignite school spirit.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Each year, they award different school leaders with either the Faith, Service or Excellence Award. This award was given to Principal Bonde for her leadership of a Next Generation STEM school, and her commitment to quality Catholic education. This award is a demonstration of the entire school\u2019s effort and dedication to innovation and excellence and is a true honor for the SKDA community.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

SKDA\u2019s Annual Spring Fundraiser<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span> – Each year, SKDA holds an annual spring fundraiser, which raises money for school programming needs, directly impacting students\u2019 lives.
