St. Ignatius to Celebrate National Catholic Schools Week January 28-February 4
January 22, 2023
St. Ignatius Catholic School will join in the nationwide celebration of Catholic Schools Week from January 28-February 4, 2023. This annual week recognizes and celebrates the importance and impact of Catholic education in the United States. Catholic education, and specifically our school’s Catholic classical educational model and joy-filled environment, is deeply desirable to families, communities, and the Church in bringing truth, beauty, and goodness to the next generation and in leading souls to Christ.
Please join us in celebrating at school Masses, attending the Variety Show on Friday, and keeping us in your prayers this Catholic Schools Week. We are grateful for the ongoing support and partnership of parents, students, staff, parishes, donors, and others in our work and mission here at St. Ignatius!

Saturday, February 4 – Celebrating Our Families
- Take this day to celebrate with your families. At St. Ignatius, we recognize parents/guardians as the primary educators of their children and are humbled to be able to partner with families throughout the Fox Valley to raise up the next generation of saints. They instill values, wisdom, virtue, and expectations of academic excellence in their children at home. We deeply respect the primacy of the family in bringing goodness, truth, and beauty in the home, the community, and the world, as well as their the role of families in Catholic education and celebrate their contributions to the success of our school.
