#WalkTogether


We're recognizing Black History Month and the Feast of St. Josephine Bakhita, one of our Community Saints at St. Michael the Archangel.
Saint Josephine Margaret Bakhita was born in a village of Sudan. As a child, she was kidnapped and sold multiple times as a slave until one owner turned her over to the care of the Canossian Sisters in Venice.
From there, she was freed as a slave and took her final vows and assigned to a convent in Schio, Vicenza. In 2000, she was declared a Saint, the first black woman to receive the honor in the modern era. St. Bakhita is the patron saint of human trafficking survivors.
St. Josephine Bakhita, pray for us.




Join us for our third Encounter of the year for a night of praise and worship music, Eucharistic Adoration, a great student witness, and Confession. The evening will begin at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, February 15 and end at 8:30 p.m.
All are welcome (families, friends, etc.). We look forward to praying with you and for our school community. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Eilerman (keilerman@smacatholic.org).

Donations from today's dress down day and tonight's Fun Night directly serve low-income families by alleviating diaper need in the KC community.

During Catholic Schools Week, our students participated in Eucharistic Procession. This activity is a beautiful expression of our love for Jesus and reminds us of our spiritual journey toward eternal life with God.
We are celebrating all the reasons why being at a Catholic School is so special. "SMA has soul. You feel it the minute you walk in the door. It emanates from the chapel in the middle of the school, thrives in the faculty and staff and lives in the students. As a parent of students there, this is the type of faith-based environment I want my children to learn and thrive in." - Rob Rastorfer, SMA Parent



Celebrate Catholic Schools Week with our Annual Fun Night including Dodgeball for Diapers and Mr. Guardian Contest! Start the evening off with our Chipotle fundraiser which can be carried into the Commons area before the festivities kick off. It's sure to be a good time!



What a way to kick off Catholic Schools Week! Thank you to The Guard, SMA Booster Club, for treating our students and staff to a Chris Cakes pancake lunch!
"Of all the spirit weeks that happens in a school, Catholic Schools week is by far my favorite week! One of the best gifts my parents gave me and my siblings was the sacrifice to send us to Catholic schools. Being challenged academically while growing stronger in my Catholic faith, is something that I do not take for granted." – Ms. Kroening, Principal
#CSW23 #CatholicEducation #walktogether





We will be celebrating Catholic Schools Week with fun activities at SMA. Kick-off the week by wearing something SMA to Mass this weekend.
