Saint Wenceslaus Catholic School Weekly Office Update

We are now accepting nominations for the Spirit of St. Wenceslaus Award. The purpose of this award is to recognize those that have gone above and beyond in their unselfish service or contributions to the school.

To qualify for the Spirit of St. Wenceslaus Award nominees must:

  • Have furthered the mission of St. Wenceslaus School through their service and contributions
  • Be a role model for the students of St. Wenceslaus School
  • Have actively and outwardly lived the values of the Catholic faith (not necessarily closed to our non-Catholic Christian families in the school – for example, actively participate in their denomination’s worship and community while at the same time supporting/participating in the mission of the school)

An awards committee will select a recipient of the award each year. The recipient will be honored at the Starry Night Gala and during a school mass. 

Nomination forms are here, and where you can read more about our 1st recipient, Mr. Ron McBroom.  

Pray, hope, and don't worry. ~St. Padre Pio
