Join Our Pilgrimage on Holy Thursday

One of the most beautiful and ancient devotions of the Church, the 7 Church pilgrimage is similar to the stations of the Cross. The 7 Church stations are visits to local Churches with readings from the 7 last places Our Lord stood before His Crucifixion. It is done on Holy Thursday, the same night Jesus would have taken this journey. Join us in person or on Instagram as we make our John Paul 7 Church pilgrimage with our Lord on this sacred night.

Click here for Information on the Return of In-person Learning for Seniors

We believe that we are ready for a gradual return to five days of in-person learning under Phase III. Parents of Seniors may opt-in their students for complete in-person learning for quarter 4. Quarter 4 begins March 29th. The gradual return to five days of in-person learning requires that we employ, in some circumstances, a variance from the recommended mitigation strategy of 6-foot social distancing. We will be able to keep the 6ft distance to a large extent.
For more information please refer to the Health Mitigation and Infectious Disease Preparedness and Response Plan Spring 2021 - Phase III
