Let us celebrate Catholic Sisters Week and give thanks for the incredible women who dedicate their lives to faith, service, and community.

We are especially grateful for the four sisters from the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of Eucharist, in Michigan who are part of our school family. Their commitment to prayer and education continues to inspire our students and staff every day.

Thank you for the wisdom you share, the example you set, and the care you show to everyone in our community. We are truly blessed by your presence and your mission.

Students from St. Michael joined other young women from across the country at the Sisters’ Look Up High School Retreat, held in Ann Arbor Michigan. The retreat included the unique opportunity to see the Sisters’ Motherhouse, including its beautiful chapel, spend time with one another (both having fun and in deep conversations), stay up all night with Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration, and learn how to look up to see ourselves how God sees us.

Lent is a sacred season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It is a time to slow down, reflect, and grow closer to Christ as we prepare our hearts for Easter.

This season calls each of us to something personal, whether it is a sacrifice, a renewed commitment, or a step forward in faith. One staff member is giving up donuts, while a student is diving deeper into learning more about the saints.

Through both small sacrifices and intentional growth, our St. Michael community is walking this Lenten journey together.
St. Michael the Archangel, pray for us.

To close out Catholic Schools Week, we took a trip off-site for some fun and fellowship! Underclassmen went bowling at Summit Lanes, and Upperclassmen went to the Olahrama Skating Rink. All while decked out in their best retro/neon looks. Even the teachers and staff got in on the fun. What a great week celebrating Catholic Education!
