Catholic Schools Week 2012

Faith- Academics -Service

   Our FAITH is our cornerstone. The week began Sunday with parish celebrations at Saint Aloysius Church, Our Lady of Blessed Sacrament Church and Notre Dame Church, our three co-sponsoring, very supportive parishes.  A Prayer Service and the distribution of Class Rings to our Class of 2012 students followed on Monday.  A special prayer was recited all week celebrating Catholic Schools. The week concluded with First Friday Mass at Saint Aloysius Church. 

    Trinity Academy’s ACADEMIC program is superior.  Students thrive in post- elementary educational settings and credit the foundations set at Trinity as the reason for their many successes.  Academic Competitive Bowls, Wii Competitions, Spelling Bees, and “When I Grow Up Presentations,”  were just a few of the many academic and enjoyable activities that took place during the week. 

 Trinity Academy has spent 20+ years in SERVICE to the local community. This Catholic School’s Week was no exception.  The students were, as always, extremely generous with their time, talents and treasure.  Projects included:

• A coat drive yielded over 200 new or slightly used coats that were immediately distributed to those in need in New York City.

•  Over 50 bags and boxes of food were collected and fill the Saint Aloysius food panty.

•   Our Builder’s Club students purchased the items for and made over 300 bologna sandwiches for a soup kitchen in Newark.

•  Students also donated items to create many “Birthday in a Bags” to be distributed at a Women’s Shelter.  These bags are available for families who seek emergency shelter for safety during a time when a child would be celebrating a birthday. 

•  Each student also donated a box of tissues for our “Sniffles for Seniors” project.  The boxes, along with a note of encouragement for long winter months, were sent to the Monsignor Kelly residence and the Caldwell Senior Citizen Center.

•   Students donated  a different denomination of change each day for our “Change for Changing” Some of our 8^th grade students then cashed in the change at Valley National Bank and  went to Jack’s Supermarket to purchase diapers and other changing supplies.  Over $1,200.00 was collected and the changing items will be donated to a local food pantry. 

• Students also made “Valentine’s for Veterans.” A representative from Congressman Frelinghuysen’s office picked up the cards which will be distributed to local veterans.

• Students participated in a “Super, Cereal Bowl.”  All students who donated a box of cereal for the food pantry were able to wear their favorite sport’s team  apparel the Monday following the Super Bowl.  NY Giant apparel was the most popular!
