As part of their Social Studies unit, our 5th graders researched their cultural heritage, created paper quilt patches, and brought food to share at their annual Multicultural Feast.

A delicious way to learn, share, and celebrate the many cultures represented in our classroom! 💙☘️

Thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers who helped make it all possible!

🌲Class of 2027 Retreat at Caritas Creek!

Our 8th graders kicked off their final year together with a week of hiking, adventure, teamwork, laughter, and plenty of time to connect and build community.

From exploring the redwoods and Bodega Bay to canoeing, archery, ropes courses, and a little muddy Gaga ball, it was a week full of memories they’ll carry with them. 💙

What a wonderful way for the Class of 2027 to begin their final year as Celtics!

📸 It’s that time of year again… Back to School Pictures!

A lot goes on behind the scenes to capture those official first-day-of-school smiles! From class group photos and individual portraits to long lines of students, helpful parent volunteers, and lots of moving around, it takes a whole team to make picture day happen. 😄

A big thank you to our parent volunteers and to Travis Watts Photography for making picture day run so smoothly! 💙

📚🎶 Welcome to 2nd Grade at St. Nicholas!

Second grade is a time of growing independence, curiosity, and confidence. In Ms. Sanders’ classroom, students read together, solve problems, collaborate, and build their skills across subjects.

From reading time and small-group math to crossword challenges and music with Mrs. Ruseva, our 2nd graders learn, create, and grow together each day. 💙☘️

📚 A History of Literacy. A Tradition of Excellence.

For more than 100 years, Catholic schools in the United States have been rooted in the belief that education opens doors, expands opportunity, and helps every child reach their full potential.

That legacy continues at St. Nicholas Catholic School, where students develop a love of reading, engage with literature, think critically, and discover new perspectives through the books they read. 📖

What a wonderful day at our Parish & School Annual Mass and BBQ! From gathering for Mass to grilling, serving, sharing a meal, and enjoying an afternoon of games and laughter, it was a community celebration that makes St. Nicholas so special. 💙

Thank you to all the families, faculty, staff, and parish volunteers who helped make the day such a success!
