In addition to having themed days focusing on student, family and staff appreciation, the All Saints community attended Mass, listened to vocational speakers, wrote thank you cards to priests and members of the military, and collected more than $400 for the St. John Neumann Food Pantry.

Students also enjoyed a week of playing games, participating in assemblies, and even enjoyed movies with their friends.

Join us for the 6th Annual All Saints Alumni Basketball Tournament immediately following the JV postseason tournament at All Saints on Saturday, March 10, 2018.

Last year, we welcomed more than 60 alumni, who participate in a series of games, and we crowned the combined Classes of 2009-2013 as tournament champs. They defeated the Class of 2014 in the finals. In the consolation game, the Class of 2015 defeated the Class of 2016 to take bronze.

Regardless of skill level, everyone is welcome to participate - or cheer on - in this co-ed event. The number of games scheduled will depend on the number of responses.

If you are interested in playing this year, please RSVP online at www.allsaintscs.com/tourney. All are welcome!

Calling All Alumni...

In first grade, students have been learning about Early American Civilizations including the Mayans. One of our 1st grade families recently traveled to Mexico and learned all about how modern day Mayans lived. Mr. Phan came in and gave a presentation to the whole first grade about the trip - including Mayan religious traditions, currency, cultural dances, and even sports they played! The students were very engaged and excited to learn about it!

Seventh grader Connor Kirkwood recently put his creativity to work and showcased the All Saints Catholic School academic crest... made out of legos!

Bowling Continues To Roll On...

JV3 Girls Earn Second Victory

Varsity Boys Win Close One!

The Blue Thunder Varsity bowlers had a great week competing against St. Pius, taking 6 of 7 points. In Game 1 All Saints was led by Brennan Pascual’s 203 game, which featured 7 strikes. Cole Tomaszek chipped in bowling 34 pins over average. Shannon Burke led the charge in the second game, bowling 19 pins over average. Connor Doyle bowled above average both games.

Nick Lehrke scored a season and team high 24 points and Mason Cone dropped in 8 points as varsity boys #1 pulled off a close victory vs. St. James. Strong bench play from James Almeda, Ryan Loverich, and Drew Laroo was needed in the end to preserve the win.

Jenna Atkins added 3 points, Ava Bowman, Emma Bauman, and Rachel Klinkhammer each had 2 points each while Bridget Rayha added finished the scoring 1 point.
