May the Lord grant us His peace!
Welcome to Saint William of York Catholic School! I am privileged to be a member of our dedicated faculty and staff, individuals who profess a deep commitment to Catholic Education. We strive to model, nurture and integrate Catholic spirituality with academic excellence in order to inspire and establish a solid foundation upon which our students may build a Christ-centered future.
To this end, our students, faculty and staff have occasions to partake in various spiritually enriching activities and formative moments throughout the scholastic year including daily Religion classes, prayer services marking feasts and significant moments, as well as weekly Friday Mass. Throughout the day students are encouraged and formed to practice Catholic Christian virtues as well as acquire a strong moral formation.
Striving towards academic excellence in education we offer Language Arts and Literature, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and Spanish, as well as Music, Drama, Chorus, Band, Art, Computer, Library and Physical Education. We also offer High School Spanish, Algebra I and Geometry for those Middle School students who excel in these areas and are ready to move at a faster pace.
In keeping with the formation of the whole person St. William of York Cathlic School offers a wide range of extracurricular activities. The Athletic Association offers volleyball, basketball, baseball, and intramural soccer, just to name a few. In addition there is Newspaper Club, Children's Choir, Math Club, Student Council, Science Club as well as many other activities.
These undertakings could not be truly effective without the essential cooperation and participation of our generous and committed parents. It is our hope that you will become a part of this awesome endeavor of the education and formation of God's children.
Peace and all good,
Sr. Lisa Lorenz, fmij
