Congratulations to those students listed on the First Semester Principal's List and Honor Roll.

This January, the Frassati Catholic High School community embarked on two pilgrimages, providing formative opportunities. Pilgrimages hold a central role in the faith life of all Catholics, serving as a journey with a purpose; a journey to honor God. In both journeys this January, the Frassati Catholic community was represented, not only physically, but also in the prayers, intentions and petitions of those who participated.

Frassati Catholic's Government and Debate club performed spectacularly at the  2019 Youth and Government State Conference in Austin, Texas January 24-27. Three groups passed policy proposals to the 2nd round of the conference and Patrick Weisbrod made club history with the first proposal to make General Assembly. Eliana Cordova sponsored two bills as Frassati Catholic’s first Youth Senator and Adam Sucy won top delegate.

Frassati Catholic High School’s swim team competed at the TAPPS East (District 3) Regional Swim Meet hosted at the University of Houston Saturday, January 19. Frassati Catholic took home seven gold medals at the event and 29 medals overall. The girls team won the East Regional Division II championship, their first regional championship, a remarkable accomplishment after moving up to the Division II level just this season.

Dr. Jay Glynn, a Ph.D. in school/child clinical psychology, spoke to the Frassati Catholic community about brain development, psychology and the importance of mental and spiritual wellness. The students were presented with some of the latest research on brain development, and tactics for building a healthy lifestyle through establishing a balance of mental, social and spiritual pursuits.

Frassati Catholic welcomed nearly 30 of our 89 graduates Friday, January 11 for Mass and the presentation of the class of 2018 gift to the school, a new bench outside the Student Life building. The Frassati Catholic community was thrilled to have alumni from both the Class of 2017 and the Class of 2018 be together to celebrate Mass, reconnect and present the generous gift.

Since Frassati Catholic opened its doors in 2013, our student-athletes have been great competitors. Whether a part of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) 2A classification or most recently 5A , Frassati Catholic has succeeded in competitions including cross country, golf, basketball, tennis, and other sports.

On December 12, the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, members of the World Language Club planned and led the entire school community in a celebration in her honor during Activity Period. The celebration began with a procession of the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Today our school had the privilege to witness the George H. W. Bush Memorial Train as it passed by campus. Faculty, staff and students paid their respects to the former President and offered prayers for the repose of his soul. It was a solemn and moving moment.

On Wednesday. November 28, we had a presentation during Activity Period called When Sean Speaks.  Sean Carter, with his mother Jenny, came to speak to us about the consequences of choices. In his case, he chose to get into the car with a drunk driver and was involved in an accident that left him with many serious injuries. Interestingly, the power of his message is through his silence – as the result of the accident, he is only able to communicate electronically. His accident happened several years after his high school days, but he shared that he had acquired the habit of drinking and of drinking to excess in high school.

Congratulations to the Government and Debate Club for a strong showing in the Houston District Youth and Government competition. The Trial Court Team consisting of Gabriella Borrello, Grace Ann Kloesel, Gaby Yabut, Andrea Bodunrin, Vanessa Munguia, Annie Nguyen, and Janelle Padilla bounced back to put up an incredible defense against the top trial team in the district.

Frassati Catholic offered an opportunity for our parents to study the new book, Disconnected: How to Reconnect Our Digitally Distracted Kids by Tom Kersting. Sister John Paul is leading a discussion about this book that deals with a critical subject: how technology impacts the learning ability of young adults. Tom Kersting is a nationally renowned psychotherapist, and school counselor. Read more about this author here. It was wonderful to see more than 50 parents take advantage of this opportunity.
