Saint Wenceslaus Catholic School Office Update
From the Office of the Principal:
Dear Parents, Grandparents, and Friends of SWS;
We are very proud of our 8th-grade Graduates. They have been an exceptional class with great leadership skills and talent. We are proud to see how they developed spiritually over the years with us, especially in their final years at our school. We are certain they will make an impact on the world around them in the future and wish them great success in high school and beyond.
All are welcome to join us for our graduation celebration on Wednesday, beginning with a Rosary at 6:00 PM in the church, followed by Mass and then the presentation of diplomas.
Souls on Fire for God,
Kim Doyle, Principal
Congratulations SWS Class of 2023.

New School Logo!
Announcing our New School Logo!
We are very excited to have a logo that recognizes our vital mission as a Catholic, Christian school under the patron of St. Wenceslaus.
St. Wenceslaus was the Duke of Bohemia. He was noted as a kind soul who spread Christianity around the country in a difficult time in history. He is seen with a shield, a Christian flag, and a crown which represents his leadership in a country where his own royal family rejected Christian beliefs. Read more about St. Wenceslaus when you get a chance.
