Catholic Schools Week and Parent Lunch

The campus was buzzing with parents today as we conducted the annual parent-student lunch in Catholic Schools Week. Impressive bags were making their way through the doors of Erbin Hall as the students anticipated a more exciting mid-day repast than usual.

The Choir School is one of 7,248 Catholic Schools in the United States, serving 2,192,531 students. Roughly 30% of Catholic School students are minorities, while just under 15% are non-Catholic.

Catholic Schools do make a difference in the lives of individual young people, their families, our church and larger community. Parents sacrifice a great deal to make a Catholic education possible for their children, and to ensure these schools continue in their important mission for many years to come.

Thank you for your tremendous support of the Choir School, and for your commitment to Catholic Education.
