Since 1974, Catholic Schools Week has been designated as a celebration of Catholic education in the United States. It starts the last Sunday in January and runs all week.  The theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2024 is “United in Faith and Community” Schools typically observe the annual celebration with activities for students, families, parishioners and community members. Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our church, our communities and our nation.
