Catholic School Open Houses

January 22, 2010

Catholic elementary schools throughout the Archdiocese of Washington are welcoming prospective parents and students to visit their schools for tours and open houses beginning Catholic Schools Week, January 31 – February 6, 2010. Catholic Schools Week is a national event, held each year to spotlight the benefits of a Catholic school education. The Archdiocese of Washington includes 78 early learning and elementary schools serving over 18,000 students in Washington, DC and five suburban and southern Maryland counties.

Meet with parents or faculty/staff and tour the school to see how Catholic schools offer academic excellence, faith and service within vibrant and diverse communities, where teachers focus on the individual growth of each student, enabling all students to reach their potential.
