Falcons Fly High!
West Catholic is known for excellence in academics, arts and athletics! We recently spoke with some students from the robotics, math and bowling teams to learn more about their unique experiences:
- Don’t know what club or sport you want to participate in when you get to high school? Try something new! Kayla, a senior at WC, shared: “I just picked bowling. It turns out I’m pretty good at it!” She qualified for the state finals all four years of high school!
- Violet is an excellent student and a member of our robotics team. She works hard to make sure she can balance all of her activities. Violet says, “Learning time management has been very important and a good skill for my future.”
- Leo turned his love of math into a fun hobby by joining our math competition team! He shared that he enjoys facing tough problems and challenges while meeting new people at competitions.
The vast majority of our students are involved in multiple clubs, teams and activities. At West Catholic, we are always excited to help students discover new interests and thrive in whatever they do!
Faith in Action
St. Patrick Parnell Visits West Catholic
We love when our community priests come to visit, so we were thrilled to welcome Fr. Tom Cavera and Mr. Czarnopys from St. Patrick Parnell! They generously brought donuts and had a great time reconnecting and engaging with their former students. Fr. Tom was smiling from ear to ear when he discovered all of the wonderful things the kids are doing here at West Catholic. Our community continues to grow stronger through the outreach of these great educators!
