As a school, we are excited to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month! Each morning, our student council has been teaching our school a Spanish word of the day. Our students in 4th-7th grade created a collaborative mural to celebrate notable Hispanics and our 2nd - 7th graders created papel picado to decorate our school bulletin boards!

October 4th is the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi. St. Benilde celebrated the day with a blessing of the animals. St. Benilde families and friends brought their pets to be blessed by Father Matthew. Our youngest students had their stuffed animals blessed too!
