Student Life

Junior High Life Skills Day

While the Senior High was away on retreat (grades 9-11) and the March for Life (grade 12), the Junior High had a blast at our annual Junior High Life Skills Day! Regular classwork is set aside and our 6th-8th graders got to spend a day focusing on fun parent- and teacher-led activities that just may lead to lifelong habits and hobbies.

They began the daily Mass, followed by our school spelling bee where Grace H. took the top spot! Afterward, students played a House game before getting down to business in their four blocks for the day. Here are the 16 amazing sessions students were able to choose from and enjoy:

Crocheting with Mrs. Hillenbrand

Unicycling with Mrs. Klaas

Intro to Investing with Mrs. Lentz

Knitting with Mrs. Anthony

Cooking with Mrs. Krejchik

Juggling with Mr. Carey

“Resiliency Mindset” with Mr. Hillenbrand
