OLVCS Updates
March 6th, 2025
Dear OLVCS Families,
Spring Break is upon us. I hope you have some rest and some fun. I am sure you have your Lenten plan already figured out, perhaps add one more thing; become a Praying Parent for OLVCS & St. Joe’s.
Join other parents, grandparents and supporters in praying for Our Lady of Victory Catholic School and Saint Joseph’s Catholic Academy. Prayer is powerful, and I’m confident that our prayers will make a difference this Lent. Please see the information below.
Trivia Night was a huge success and a fabulous time was had by all! Thank you to Marlena Vendemia for her organization, thoughtfulness and dedication. Also thank you to Jerry Valeri (Master of Ceremonies), the Kraft family, Graham Fetterolf, Sherry Capozzi, Teresa Stone, JoAnne Venturino, Meg Relkin, Sandy Muller, Meghan Davis, Darlene Mikesic, the Sillner family, Sharon and Terry Stec, Nicole Heinlein, Sarah Weiner, the Peters family, Sandra Lema, Federico Rodriguez Hertz, Ashley and Ben Page, Chris Meckley, Julie Smith, Samantha Russell, the Straub family, Malissa & Mike Martin, the Ruffing family, Ashley Bartley, Deb Haag, the Grove family, the McCleary family, the Barr family, the Weakland family, and the families of OLVCS Athletics & Musical for their time, talents, and donations. We don't have the final amount raised, but will get that to you soon.
Make it a Great Day & Spring Break!
Samantha

Parents Praying For Our Schools
Looking for Something "To Do" for Lent?
We got that! Sign up now to pray to 15 min one day per week for the students, teachers, and administrations of OLV and Saint Joseph's - that's only 6 times! Lent began on March 5th, but you can still sign up at https://stjoeacad.org/parents-praying/. You will receive an email reminder each week, to help you "keep on praying." Our goal is to have one parent, grandparent, or friend of OLV and Saint Joseph's to be praying for our schools on each of the 40 days of Lent.
Mr. Stec's Clean Up Crew
We are looking for help to clean up our beautiful school!
- If you are wanting a way to give back to OLVCS and want to earn service hours, sign up today!
- Mr. Stec will work with Middle School students twice a month on projects around the school that need attention. Students are able to sign up week to week. They do not need to commit to the entire semester.
- If you have any questions feel free to email Terry Stec at stect@olvcs.org.
