Queen of Apostles School, San Jose, CA

Thank you to everyone who joined us after Mass for donuts! 🍩⛪️ The morning was filled with smiles, meaningful conversations, and a true sense of community. There’s nothing sweeter than connecting with one another after Mass! We can’t wait to do it again on October 20th!🙌🏻💙

🌟Join us tomorrow for our monthly Community Mass at Queen of Apostles Parish!🌟 Come together in faith as we celebrate together!

Yesterday, our Eagle Family honored the memory of 9/ll through prayer, gratitude, and creativity. 🙏🏻🇺🇸 We started by reflecting on the verse: “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” (Romans 12:15). Together, we remembered those who are suffering and lifted them in our prayers. Our students showered their appreciation for first responders through heartfelt letters and began folding 1,000 paper cranes - symbols of hope and healing- to display by our statue of Mother Mary. 🕊️💙

As we wrap up our review of the 2023-2024 school year, take a look at some of the awesome events students engaged with. From our Halloween Carnival to hands-on field trips, each moment was filled with learning and fun! 📚🎉

Reflecting on the 2023-2024 school year, we’re proud of our students’ outstanding achievements across all subjects! In 8th grade science, they brought Newton’s Third Law of Motion to life through ball collision experiments. We can’t to see the hands-on explorations and scientific discoveries that await our Queen of Apostles students next year!

At Queen of Apostles, our mission includes nurturing the spiritual growth of our students. Some ways our students grow in their faith during the year include attending Mass, reflecting during morning prayer, and participating in religion classes. Enjoy these photos from our All Saints Day celebration, rosary prayer service, morning prayer, and the third grade’s portrayal of the Stations of the Cross. ✝️❤️

Every year, our school faculty and staff choose a theme to guide us. For 2023-2024, the theme was ‘Home’. Home was defined as “a place that provides affection and security, making one feel a sense of belonging.” Student Council leaders choreographed a dance to ‘Home’ by Phillip Phillips, and students and faculty joined in every Friday during morning assembly to sing and dance along!

Wishing everyone a safe and joyful Fourth of July!

Over the next few weeks, we’ll look back at the wonderful memories that made our 2023-2024 school year special. ✨

We are thrilled to welcome Fr. Anthony to our campus as he assumes his new role as Pastor of Queen of Apostles today. Be sure to say hello as you see him at Mass this summer! ✝️

Our faculty & staff at QofA are what make our school an amazing place to learn and play. Their professionalism and care are truly remarkable.

The last week of school calls for some service projects!! Our second and fifth grade students organized supplies for Sacred Heart Community Services. We are incredibly proud of our students for embodying the values of Caring Christians!

✨ And that’s a wrap on Spirit Week 2024 ✨

Our fifth graders had an amazing adventure at History San Jose! They journeyed back to the 1800s, learning about the westward movement from Missouri to Oregon and California. From packing a wagon and crafting leather keychains to milking a pretend cow and caring for a pretend hose, it was a day full of hands-on history and fun!

Many of our second graders and their families filled our church last night as students celebrated their first holy communion. May God continue to bless them throughout their spiritual journey. ✝️🤍
