A Special Thank You to the Paris Police Department!

As part of our Red Ribbon Week activities, we were excited to welcome officers from the Paris Police Department to St. Joseph Catholic School!

Our students had a wonderful time visiting with the officers, asking questions, exploring a police car, and even getting to try on a bulletproof vest!

We know our local law enforcement officers have incredibly busy schedules, and we are especially grateful that they took time out of their day to spend with our students. Their willingness to share their experiences, answer questions, and build positive relationships with our students means so much!

Thank you, Paris Police Department, for your continued support of our school and for all you do to keep our community safe! We truly appreciate you!

A Gift of Love That Will Make a Lasting Impact!

St. Joseph Catholic School is incredibly blessed and grateful to the Bradley VeRoy Foundation for their generous monetary donation, given in loving memory of Bradley VeRoy Johnson.

This extraordinary gift will make a tremendous difference in the lives of our students and will ease the financial burden on families.

What a beautiful way to honor Bradley’s memory! Through this generosity, his legacy of love and kindness will continue to touch the lives of children and families in our community.

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to the Bradley VeRoy Foundation! Your generosity is a true blessing, and the impact of this gift will be felt throughout our entire school family.

Wednesday we celebrated the success of our annual pie sales! Our top sellers earned a few chances at the claw machine and got to choose a teacher to pie in the face! The students had a BLAST, and our teachers were such good sports! Thursday our 3rd–8th grade students enjoyed a fun-filled trip to the pumpkin patch, making memories with their classmates! We love seeing our students work hard, celebrate their accomplishments, and enjoy these special moments together! Short week, BIG memories, and lots of happy faces!
