The Diocese of Orlando Catholic Schools

Summer is here and so is summer reading! 📖 A few simple ways to keep the momentum going at home:

📘Set a daily reading routine.
📕 Find a comfortable, dedicated reading spot at home.
📙 Talk about the story, characters, and plot.
📗Read alongside them when you can.

Athletics are a vital part of a Catholic education. 🏀 From the elementary school field to the high school court, our student-athletes learn discipline, teamwork, and perseverance.

❤️‍🔥 “O Sacred Heart of Jesus, fountain of eternal life, Your Heart is a glowing furnace of Love. You are my refuge and my sanctuary.” - St. Gertrude the Great

On the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, let us take refuge in the infinite love that springs forth from the Heart of Christ.

When the summer heat keeps everyone indoors, crafts and creative projects are some of the best ways to keep kids engaged. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

✂️ Scrapbook or memory journals to capture the summer
🖌️ Watercolor painting (easy to set up & clean)
🧵 Friendship bracelets or simple weaving projects
🍋 A baking or cooking project

Behind every safe school day is a team of dedicated people working hard to make it possible.

We thank the security officers and school leaders across the Diocese of Orlando who keep our campuses secure and our communities prepared.

STEM education in action! 🚁 St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School eighth-graders get hands-on drone programming and flying experience through a partnership with the Gaetz Aerospace Institute at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

We wish our high school graduates the very best as they move onto their next stage of life. Though your paths will lead in many different directions, you will always have a home here.

We cannot wait to see all that God has in store for you!

Please join us in praying for our students’ safety and well-being during summer break. 🙏

“The Lord bless you and keep you!
The Lord let his face shine upon you,
and be gracious to you!
The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!”
Numbers 6:24–26

Happy summer break! 🌞 We hope you have a fantastic summer filled with fun and adventure.
