Earlier this year, the staff had fun trying to complete a Balloon Challenge. A wager was also set with the 6th graders: should one selected student successfully meet the Balloon Challenge, the whole school would get a Dress Down Day. Well...thanks to Jake Meyer catching the balloon...this Friday, March 13th is an All School Dress Down Day!

🕊️ March’s Virtue: Self-Control 🕊️
This month at Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools, we’re focusing on self-control—the virtue that helps us pause, choose wisely, and follow God’s will even when it’s hard.
Self-control strengthens our hearts and minds, helping us make choices that reflect Christ’s love. Whether it’s practicing kindness, managing emotions, or resisting temptations, we’re encouraging our students to slow down, think, and act with intention.

Happy School Counselors Week, Mrs. Mack...we appreciate you!!!
Tomorrow, February 5th is our Kickoff For Kindness Day. All students may dress down and they are encouraged to wear a jersey (any sport) if they have one. *The jersey is not a requirement to dress down.
The word in Preschool is that we still have 6 weeks of winter!
💪 February’s Virtue: Perseverance 💪
This month at Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools, we’re celebrating perseverance—the virtue that helps us stay strong, stay focused, and keep going even when things get tough.
Perseverance reminds us that with God’s help, we can face challenges with courage and finish the race set before us. Whether it's in the classroom, on the field, or in our daily lives, we’re encouraging our students to never give up and to trust that God is with them every step of the way.
