[quote=Anonymous]We moved across the country but Catholic Schools Week is a big deal here, too. Of all the classes to miss for each day’s events, my child’s grade missed 5 days of math class! But on the other hand, they had special activities with their younger grade brother/sisters, had a special mass, did service projects, and had spirit days. The high schools here time their finals to happen before Catholic schools week so it’s like a second homecoming week with lots of fun activities, including new student acceptance day and auctions. If anything, I appreciate that they compress the fun into one week and are otherwise pretty efficient with random days off. Re: feast days- by us each school puts special emphasis on the feast days that are most relevant to their school. So ours celebrates bigger for its namesake saint in November but my neighbor’s HS has their big celebrations in May. We definitely don’t celebrate random ones.[/quote]
