Let us be grateful for the fathers who love and support their families in our St. Michael community. Let us give thanks to the priests and bishops who act as spiritual fathers. God our Father, continue to teach justly and grant us boundless mercy.
The Knights of Columbus are true blessings! They are working hard at St. Michael to help secure the bleachers in a safe place on our practice field. Thank you Knights!!

St. Michael is pleased to recognize the students who were awarded the Charism Awards for the 2022-2023 school year. These are the highest awards given at SMA to those who follow our mission to Know Truth, Love God, and Serve Others.
Sr. Stephen Patrick has been selected as one of four recipients of an Innovation in Learning Environments grant from the Kansas City Chapter of the Association for Learning Environments. Although the grant request was $2,000 for a weather station (to be erected at SMA) and time lapse camera, thanks to a surplus of chapter funds, she was surprised at the awards ceremony with a $4,000 check to spend on classroom projects.
