SCHWENKSVILLE PA – St. Mary’s Catholic School, 40 Spring Mount Rd., will observe national “Celebrate Catholic Schools Week” from Sunday (Jan. 29, 2023) through Feb. 4 (Saturday) by scheduling visitors for personal tours of its facilities, and with “a number of fun, creative, and enjoyable activities” planned within the school and parish, it said.

Families interested in enrolling prospective students are encouraged to register for a tour. Early sign-ups are suggested, as availabilities are limited. For more information, call Director of Advancement Geneviève Giampa at 610-287-7757 Ext. 244, or send her an e-mail at ggiampa@smsk-8.org.

Among the week’s highlights will be a Feb. 3 (Friday) talent show scheduled for 7 p.m. in the school’s Hedge Hall. The evening performance will be open to the public. It will feature students who have volunteered to demonstrate their abilities as singers, dancers, actors, and instrumentalists.

National Catholic Schools Week was founded in 1974 as an annual observance of Catholic education in the United States. The 2023 theme for the week is “Catholic Schools: Faith. Excellence. Service.” Schools typically observe the annual celebration week with religious services, open houses, and other activities for students, families, parishioners, and community members.
