St. Ann School in Arlington kickstarted Catholic Schools Week with a student Mass Jan. 28. Students worked with St. Ann parishioner Maureen Donnelly to deliver the readings and prayers of the faithful and with parishioner Chris Sullivan to train as ushers.
Next up, the student council took the lead to arrange a student appreciation day with a Free Dress, Wacky Hair and No Homework Day.
To celebrate the more than 300 pounds of food for Arlington Food Assistance Center, the school organized a Character Dress Down Day and encouraged children to dress as their favorite book, movie, tv or theater character.
Feb. 1, the Parent Teacher Organization showed support for parents during morning drop off with a breakfast treat.
Students also dressed in various decades with outfits from the 1950s, ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, ’90s and early 2000s.
