Traditions at Summerville Catholic School
At Summerville Catholic School, traditions play an important role in building community and creating lasting memories for our students and families. Throughout the year, special events and celebrations bring our school together in faith, friendship, and school spirit. These traditions help strengthen our sense of community while allowing students to grow, serve others, and celebrate their talents.

Each year we celebrate Catholic Schools Week with special activities that highlight our faith, our students, and our community. The week includes themed days, service opportunities, and celebrations that showcase the joy of Catholic education.

Students honor the saints by learning about their lives and participating in activities that celebrate the many role models of faith within the Catholic tradition. The saints parade can not be missed!
