Last week, the Class of 2026 attended their Junior Service Retreat!
This year's retreat focused on addressing food insecurity, both locally and globally. Groups of students spent their morning packing meals at The Greater Chicago Food Depository, Catholic Charities Chicago, and Feed My Starving Children. It was a meaningful day full of service and reflection!

On October 9, the Mac Majorettes and Catherine McAuley Honor Society students visited Mercy Circle for the second Macs with Mercy event of the year. Our Mighty Macs worked with the residents to make pumpkin centerpieces to give to families served through Pat’s Pantry. Our students and residents both had a lovely time getting to know each other while serving the community.
On October 10, our entire school community gathered together for a wonderful prayer service in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month organized by the Latinas Lead club. The service included prayers and petitions, student and faculty reflections, dances and musical performances.
Our Mariachi Club had the opportunity to play with the Latin Grammy nominated Mariachi Herencia de Mexico group! It was a great experience to celebrate the Hispanic culture and community.
