Highlights of Catholic Schools Week stormed the end of January with new events for Noll students.
In addition to themed days, Mr Michael Haddad, campus minster organized a trivia and bingo day for the students and a performance by Catholic singer P.J. Anderson. Noll’s pep band also performed their pieces that they will play this Saturday at their competition at St. Viator’s High School in Arlington Heights. According to Mr. Rocco Carioto, band director, the performers used this concert as an opportunity to work on dynamics, articulations, and volume correct before the competition.
But the real celebration was in the appreciation of Catholic Schools.
“It is a time to celebrate Catholicism, not only on Sundays, but also throughout the week; we should bring out our faith and let it shine for all to see what Catholic Schools Week is all about; we should take a time out to celebrate our faith,” said Haddad.
According to Haddad, the Mass was the most successful part of Catholic Schools Week. “About 1000 people are coming to celebrate the Body of Christ and (the Diocese) comes together to be one and united in Christ,” said Haddad.
Haddad believes this Catholic Schools Week was more well-planned and eventful than previous years’ celebrations.
“We did more than we have ever done,” Haddad said.
