“Why is Catholic Schools Week in January? Admission deadlines have past and we often have to cancel because of snow.”
National Catholic Schools Week is an annual celebration of Catholic education in the U.S. Now entering its 49th anniversary year, CSW traditionally is held the last week in January.
Each year, NCEA relies on feedback from Catholic schools on how to improve the CSW experience. In 2016, they introduced a “year-round marketing” mentality to Catholic school communications strategy. The purpose of this strategy is to have schools take the spirit (and theme, and logo) of CSW and implement into a full year’s marketing plan.
Discover Catholic Schools Week, this year Nov. 13 – 19, is designated to help schools connect with prospective families, donors, educators and other community members.
CSW, Jan. 29-Feb. 4, 2023, usually includes Masses, assemblies and other activities for students, families, parishioners and community members to celebrate the great work of Catholic schools.
