“Preparing and going to NCYC was nerve-racking. I had no idea what to expect from this type of conference. All of my doubts and worries quickly diminished as I realized that I was surrounded by 25,000 other teenagers who were also there to learn more about their faith. Every single day was full of keynote speakers, smaller group reflections, singing, and meeting new people from all across the country. Some of my favorite speakers…”

From Father Fasnacht, the founder of the high school, to the School Sisters of St. Francis who dedicated their lives to teaching young people to the current faculty and staff today, we celebrate all those who dedicated themselves to the educational and faith formation of our parish and neighborhood teens...

Listening, as St. Benedict would later elaborate in his Rule, is the fundamental attitude from which all other attitudes flow...

What previously served as our school’s computer lab and library got a major overhaul this summer to create our STEM lab. The room, which just two years ago functioned as two different spaces, today form one innovative space for learning…
