The Student Leaders will be having a Coin War next week (May 11-15) to support new and expectant parents in the Diocese of Green Bay. The goal of each class is to fill their baby bottles with as many nickels, dimes, and quarters as they can. Other classes can take away totals by adding dollar bills to the baby bottles as well. The classroom with the most points wins a pizza party. Let the fun begin!!
Last Friday, our first graders had the sweetest opportunity to visit the residents of Century Ridge 💛
With big smiles and even bigger hearts, they shared joy, laughter, and a whole lot of love. Moments like these remind us how powerful simple connections can be—and how much we can learn from one another.
It truly was a beautiful experience for everyone involved! ✨

Last night, we gathered together for our annual May Crowning ceremony, honoring our Blessed Mother Mary and celebrating her humble “yes” to God’s call. Through her faith and obedience, Mary accepted the sacred role of becoming the mother of His Son, Jesus Christ.
It was a beautiful evening of prayer, reflection, and devotion as we crowned Mary and entrusted our hearts and families to her loving care. May we all strive to follow her example of faith, humility, and trust in God’s plan.

Last week, our 5th and 6th graders traveled to Ledge View to learn all about fossils, and even got to go on their own fossil hunt! Afterward, we headed to 1000 Islands in Kaukauna, where students learned how to navigate using a compass and wrapped up the day with a nature walk.
We are so proud of how hard the 5th and 6th graders worked to raise the money to make this field trip possible!

We were honored to welcome Mr. Mallmann from the Knights of Columbus as our guest speaker at our monthly school assembly. He spoke to our students about how the Knights serve the church and support our community through acts of charity, unity and service. His message encouraged students to think about how they can also help others and be active members of our community.
Leave your birthday wishes for our 5K teacher, Ms. Mastey!
🌳 Yesterday, the City of Chilton held its annual Arbor Day program right here at CACS! 🌳
Our 4th grade students, along with 4th graders from Chilton Elementary School, came together to celebrate the beauty and importance of trees—and to help plant a very special tree on our grounds in honor of Karl Mathes.
The students shared beautiful literary pieces about trees and the important role they play in our world, making the celebration both meaningful and memorable.
The most touching moment of the day came as our CACS 4th graders gathered around the newly planted tree with the Mathes family to pray together. We then sang our blessing song over the tree and the family—a moment so special that Mrs. Mathes asked us to sing it twice! 💚
Thank you to the Mathes family, the City of Chilton, and Leaves Inspired Nursery for the generous donation of this tree, which will help beautify our new green space for years to come.
A beautiful day, a meaningful memory, and a lasting reminder of faith, community, and growth. 🌱

At CACS, our middle school leadership group is called StudentLeader Academy (SLA)! 🌟
SLA is an extension of the CatholicLeader Academy program our teachers have been involved in over the past few years. In this program, students in 5th–8th grade learn valuable leadership skills—and then put those skills into action by helping teach younger students about leadership too!
This week, we saw something especially inspiring. A group of our 6th grade Student Leaders noticed a problem affecting some of our students and decided they wanted to help create a solution. They brought their concerns—and their ideas—to Mrs. Meyers, along with a plan for how they could raise money to make it happen.
Mrs. Meyers encouraged them to take the next step and meet with Father Jon, since he makes the final decisions—and they did just that!
Earlier this week, these young leaders presented their ideas to Father Jon. They were prepared, organized, confident, and incredibly well-spoken. He was impressed and gave them next steps, with plans to meet with them again soon.
We are so proud of these girls for stepping up, using their voices, and showing what true leadership looks like. This is exactly what StudentLeader Academy is all about! 💙

Yesterday was Saint George's Feast day. Our 4k students taught their 5th grade buddies about him! We had a feast party and later played knights vs dragons! 🐉🎉🛡️
Between bouts of rain last week, the 4th graders visited Woldt Farms in Brillion for their annual Classroom on the Farm field trip (sponsored by the Calumet County Farm Bureau). Students rotated between various stations to learn about what cows eat and how to care for them. They visited the milking parlor, talked about farm machinery, and even got to pet some calves and baby goats. Thank you to all the amazing sponsors of this wonderful event. It provided us with a great opportunity to make connections to what we've been learning about in our classroom!
Leave your birthday wishes for our Special Education and ELL Interventionist, Mrs. Piehl!

Third grade students created a book report in a bag! Each student read a book of their choice and completed a report using a bag and some things from home to represent important parts of the story. After presenting the reports, the class had the opportunity to look at all the items hiding in the bags.
Don't worry about lunch today - we've got you covered! Come support our 7th and 8th grade students in their final fundraiser before their Washington DC trip in June. See the flyer for more details!
Last week, our third graders took a meaningful journey through the Passion of Christ in a very special way. Each student created a short activity and prayer for one of the Stations of the Cross and together they transformed the classroom into a beautiful station walk experience. As they journeyed through the Passion of Christ, they took time to reflect, pray, and connect with the story in a hands-on way.
To finish, each student created a wooden cross using clothespins—a simple but powerful reminder of what Jesus did for us. ✝️
Christ is risen! He is truly risen! Today we celebrate Easter Sunday, the greatest day of the year, when Jesus conquered death and opened the gates of heaven for us. No more sadness—Alleluia! The Church calls this the feast of new life, like a rebirth through Baptism, where we become children of God.
Family Challenge: Renew your Baptism promises together (like at the Easter Vigil), hide "Resurrection eggs" with Bible verses about Jesus rising, and share a photo of your family's Easter smiles in the comments. Let's spread the light of Christ! 🌟
The 50 days of Easter are one big party of hope—let's live it with full hearts! He is risen indeed! 🙌

Our 2nd grade class has been bringing the story of Holy Week to life in a very special way this Lenten season through their “Resurrection Eggs” project.
Using simple materials and a lot of heart, students created their own set of eggs; each one representing an important part of the story from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday. Through this hands-on activity, they didn’t just learn the story… they learned how to tell it. This serves as a beautiful reminder that even our youngest learners can be powerful storytellers of faith.
We are so proud of our 2nd graders and the thoughtful work they’ve done to prepare for Easter!

Today, on Good Friday, we remember Jesus' great love: He died on the Cross to save us from sin and bring us to heaven. It's a day of prayer, fasting, and quiet sadness as we stand at the foot of the Cross, just like the Blessed Mother and the disciples.
Pope Francis reminded us: "Before the image of the crucified God, we will bring... the sufferings of the sick, the poor, the rejected... the innocent victims," asking Jesus to comfort them as He comforts us. Think of Jesus hugging you through hard times—He forgives everything if we say sorry with a humble heart!
Family Challenge: Fast simply today, pray the Stations of the Cross together, and draw a picture of Jesus on the Cross with a big heart for His love. Share your drawings in the comments!
Let’s adore the Cross and trust in Jesus' victory over death. Happy Easter is coming! 🕊️✝️

📚 Who loves to read? We sure do at CACS!
Our students recently had the chance to join our Lunch Book Bunch, and it was a huge hit! During their lunch recess, Ms. Rebecca Barry from the Chilton Public Library visited the CACS Library Media Center to share exciting books and highlight all the amazing opportunities available at the public library.
From discovering new stories to learning about fun activities, students were fully engaged and eager to explore more. With over 60 enthusiastic readers across both lunch sessions, it’s clear that the love of reading is alive and well at CACS!
We’re so grateful for this partnership and can’t wait for our students to dive into their next great read. 📖✨
We are quickly approaching one of the most solemn and prayerful times in the Church’s liturgical calendar. The 4th–8th grade students have been working diligently to prepare a meaningful journey through Jesus’ final days on Earth. Please join us for our annual Passion Play on April 1st at Good Shepherd Parish.
We will have two performances: one in the afternoon at 1:30 and another in the evening at 6:00. All are welcome to attend and begin their Holy Week with reflection and reverence.
"Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13
