Don't miss our final spotlight tomorrow!





💙 Thank You to Our Bronze & Torchbearer Cash Raffle Sponsors💙
We are deeply grateful to our Bronze & Torchbearer Cash Raffle sponsors who help raise critical funds for Jordan Catholic School while also making it possible to offer three cash raffle blessings to our supporters. Your generosity strengthens our classrooms, supports our teachers, & helps us continue providing a faith-filled education rooted in growth, community, & service. We truly could not do this without you.

Today was Celebrating Our Students day, and the energy in the building was electric! We honored our Jaguars with a well-deserved day of fun, laughter, and school spirit.
It was been a jam-packed day of celebration:
Casual Dress Day 👕 (Comfy Jaguars are happy Jaguars!)
Special Lunch 🍕 (A delicious treat for our hard-working students.)
Minute-to-Win-It Games ⏱️ (The competition was fierce!)
Surprise Flash Mob 💃 (Nothing beats an all-school dance party!)
The highlight of the afternoon? Our 8th Graders vs. Teachers Volleyball Game! 🏐 Let’s just say the teachers had a bit of a "growth spurt" as they took the court in hilarious blow-up costumes! 🦖🎈 It was a match we won't soon forget.

We have two exciting recycling projects and need your help to reach our goals!
Pop Tabs for Ronald McDonald House: We’re collecting aluminum tabs to provide housing and resources for families with sick children. Drop them off at the Main Office.
2 Million Can Challenge: We’ve joined a national contest to recycle aluminum cans! This earns money for our school while helping the planet.
How you can help: Please send empty, rinsed cans to school—and don't forget to pull the tabs for RMH before you do!


There is no better way to show our staff some love than by walking a mile in their (very stylish) shoes! 🍎👟
