Catholic Schools Week will take place Jan. 31 to Feb. 6.
National Catholic Schools Week is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States, which starts the last Sunday in January. The theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2021 is "Catholic Schools: Faith. Excellence. Service."
Throughout the week, Prince of Peace Catholic School in Lake Villa, a nationally recognized Blue Ribbon school, as well as other Catholic schools across the United States, focus on the value that Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to the church, communities and nation.
"We value our student body as well as our faculty, staff and parents at Prince of Peace. Catholic Schools Week is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate them, as well as the importance of Catholic education," said Dr. Stephanie Stoneberg, principal of Prince of Peace.
