A huge shoutout to our yearbook staff for their incredible work on the 2025-26 yearbook. They did a fantastic job capturing the people, moments and experiences that drew us together. ✏️

You may have noticed a “For Sale” sign along our Richmond entrance recently. We’re excited to share that West Catholic has officially purchased the neighboring 0.33-acre lot! A special thank you to Vito Dolci (Dolci Realty) for negotiating and contributing to this purchase.
We’re incredibly blessed to have an all-inclusive campus, and opportunities like this allow us to continue building and growing in ways that best serve our students. Whether through major construction projects or gradually expanding the footprint of our campus, we remain committed to investing in the future of West Catholic and creating the best opportunities possible for our Falcons.
We can’t wait to share more exciting news about changes happening on our campus soon!

Today, we hold up in prayer all of the brave men and women who lost their lives protecting our freedom.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.
