The week of Jan. 29 marked Catholic Schools Week, and it certainly was a busy one this year. Special masses and celebrations happened all week at each of the schools around the archdiocese, and though it was impossible to be at every event, Denver Catholic managed to capture a few of the festivities. God bless our Catholic schools!
