Our school participated in the live Stations of the Cross after Mass at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. Today, on Good Friday, we remember the passion of the cross.
Jesus is condemned to death.
Jesus takes up his Cross.
Jesus falls the first time.
Jesus meets his Mother.
Simon of Cyrene helps Jesus carry the Cross.
Veronica wipes the face of Jesus.
Jesus falls for the second time.
Jesus meets the women of Jerusalem.
Jesus falls for the third time.
Jesus is stripped of his garments.
Jesus is nailed to the Cross.
Jesus dies on the Cross.
Jesus is taken down from the Cross.
Jesus is laid in the tomb.
These kids loved seeing the animals and going on the rides at Yesterland Farm.

These preschool students focused on the letter R this past week and had fun working on their project.
Our futsal team kicked off their season last week and played against St. Patrick's team. This weekend they had two DPL games. We wish them the best of luck as they continue their season. Go Bears!
Our Garden Club students loved digging in the dirt. They planted more seedlings this week in their raised beds.
Mrs. Denis transformed her classroom into a surgical nonfiction unit. Students utilized their skills in language arts as they dissected grammar, performed text feature transplants, and repaired broken bones by matching vocabulary words with their definitions.
Congratulations to Marcos who competed on behalf of JLCCS last weekend in JV track. He placed 7th in the shot put, 15th in discus, and 13th in the 50 yard dash. Go Bears!
"Jesus looked at them and said, “For human beings this is impossible, but for God all things are possible.”" - Matthew 19:26
Today at our Blue Knights Boys' Club meeting the boys were challenged to open up their candy without using their hands. Many of them said this task was impossible after several minutes of trying. Afterwards they discussed what things were impossible for us to do, but possible with God.
Our preschool students loved coming out to the Navarro County Youth Expo. Special thanks to all of the students who toured our group and helped us learn about their animals.
Congratulations to Alonzo, Madeleine, Lauryl, and Jolie (not pictured) who were all recognized with the Honor Student Award at the Navarro County Youth Expo.
Congratulations to these winners of the 2025 Future Saints and Scholars Poetry Contest hosted by the TriCore Foundation: Leslie (7th grade - 2nd place), Charles (8th grade - 4th place), and Benjamin (6th grade - finalist). Special thanks to Mrs Arnold for coordinating this for our school.
These kids are gearing up for the Food Challenge at the Navarro County Expo. We love how they get the opportunity to prepare dishes, learn about nutrition, and practice their public speaking skills.
Our prayers are being answered!!!!
We have been truly blessed in this week. Today we received $10,000 from the Thornell Foundation to go towards our multipurpose court project and a family just donated $3,000 to purchase one of the basketball hoop systems. Additionally, we received $10,000 from the Kay & Byron Cook Mariposa Foundation to go towards the surfacing of our multi-purpose court earlier this week. We also received the funds to purchase the nets and poles for tennis, pickleball, and volleyball.
We are still looking for individuals or corporate partners to help us purchase the last two basketball systems and Phase III of our Multi-Purpose Playground Project. Remember that any amount will help us reach our goal.
Here are some of the items we still need funding for:
2 More Adjustable Basketball Systems: $2,850 each
Sidewalk & Handicap Ramp: $2,900 remaining
Safety Fencing Around Court: $18,200 (Phase III) - any amount towards this project would be helpful.

Our Little Flowers Girls’ Club had a wonderful field trip to Dallas this week. The girls went to Our Lady of Pillar and the Cathedral Guadalupe on a spiritual pilgrimage. Afterwards they had lunch together and enjoyed fellowship with each other. We are so blessed to see this group of girls grow together in faith and friendship.
At our last Little Flowers Girls' Club meeting, as we were discussing the virtue of confidence, we focused on the importance of listening for God's voice. The girls talked about how they could be silent to pray and listen.
