Schools to celebrate Catholic Schools Week with Open Houses

 Posted Jan. 29, 2010

  

Monday, Feb. 1 marks the beginning of open registration for all Catholic schools in the Diocese of Rochester. The diocese has 24 schools operating grades Kindergarten – 8th throughout Monroe County, the Finger Lakes and the Southern Tier. Many of our schools also offer pre-K.

  

Next week, the Diocese of Rochester is also joining other schools around the country in celebrating Catholic Schools Week (Jan. 31 - Feb. 5). Catholic Schools Week marks a period in which teachers, parents and, especially, schoolchildren can express their pride in being part of a school system that strives to combine faith, values and academic excellence.
