We see the marvelous reality of how SFA celebrates faith, knowledge, discipline, morals and service toward each other every day as part of our journey. It is in the dedication, integrity and generosity of our Pastors, teachers, staff, administration, parents, and all those who contribute to supporting SFA. It’s in the compassion of our students when they help one another or reach out to assist our less fortunate brothers and sisters. It’s in the life-long values that our students will continue to embody long after they have left our doors. Please share in our enthusiasm as we focus on the different aspects of how “Going the Distance with Faith, Service, and Excellence” adds to the spirituality across our Nation this week.

Beyond the fun and fulfilling activities listed in the daily schedule, we will have two additional "flight paths" for our students during Catholic Schools Week.
- The first is a project highlighting "advice for the road ahead." Each student will be given a travel related cutout to write words of advice related to how to go the distance with faith, service, and excellence. The shapes will be put together in a beautiful bulletin board and displayed in front of the school throughout the week.
- The second opportunity will be a tear away sheet of "Acts of Kindness" for each day of the week. We will ask students to share how they completed their acts of kindness by submitting photos or short descriptions to [email protected] (optional). We will share their submissions in our social media "stories" throughout Catholic Schools Week.
