Sunday, January 27, 2019 marks the beginning of National Catholic Schools Week.  National Catholic Schools Week is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. This year it begins January 27 and runs through February 2.  The theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2019 is “Catholic Schools: Learn. Serve. Lead. Succeed.” SEES will observe the annual celebration week with Masses, an Open House, and other activities for students, families, parishioners and community members. Through these events, we will focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our church, our communities and our nation. We encourage parents, grandparents, parishioners, prospective families, visitors, and community members to join us and experience first-hand the benefits of students learning, playing, praying and living out their faith here at SEES. Below is a list of events for each day.

The 4th Annual 100 for 100 Campaign ends Friday, February 1! We are in the home stretch of striving for our goal of 100% participation from SEES families during the 100 days of the campaign. So far, we have received gifts ranging from $1 to $1,000. No gift is too small or too large!

Each and every dollar donated goes directly to the SEES Annual Fund for Excellence. The Annual Fund fills the gap between tuition dollars paid by our families and the actual cost per student to attend SEES. This enables us to keep our tuition at one of the lowest rates in the region, thus creating opportunities for families who would not otherwise have the means to choose a Catholic education for their children.

Thank you to each of you for your support. If you have not already done so, please consider making a gift to the 100 for 100 Campaign. Every donation, regardless of the amount, helps us move closer towards our goal of 100% participation.
