Happy Catholic Schools Week!
Happy Catholic Schools Week! Thank you for choosing Vermilion Catholic and entrusting us with your most precious children and grandchildren! We are blessed with generations of people and traditions that have made our school strong and vibrant over many decades. Thank you to everyone who joined us this week in person or in prayer, as well as those whose generous gifts of time and talents have made this week possible for all of us! You, the people of this community, past, present and future, are the embodiment of all that we honor and celebrate this week!

News from the Student Services Department
All students in 8th-12th grade and their parents
All students in 8th-12th grade and their parents should have received an email this week from Level All, a college and career readiness platform. This is a legitimate resource that we are wanting to provide to our students and families free of charge. I encourage you to activate your free account and explore what it has to offer. My favorites are the Discover tab ----> Career section -----> Become A Teacher, Become a Dentist, etc. as well as the Tools tab where they have a College Finder and a Scholarship Finder. Reach out to Ashley Crowe if you have any questions.
