I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful and restful Fall Break!
During the break, I had the privilege of attending the Fullness in Truth Conference, and it was truly an incredible experience! The conference featured inspiring speakers and presenters, including Father Carlos Martins, Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers, Trent Horn, Matthew Leonard, and Fr. Josemaria Barbin, FI, to name just a few. One of the most meaningful moments was having the opportunity to see and touch a relic of the Veil of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It was such a beautiful blessing and a moment I will always cherish.
If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend attending the upcoming Fullness in Truth Conference in Houston at Great Wolf Lodge, which will focus on the family. It promises to be a meaningful and enriching experience that can have a lasting impact on your faith and family life. https://muradbid.com/app/public/bidapp/fothoustonconference/tickets/tix
Our Halloween Carnival is this Friday! I hope you will make plans to join us for an evening of fun, fellowship, and community. Be sure to arrive hungry! We will have an incredible variety of delicious food options available this year, all prepared and served in-house. Please remember that tickets will be required for purchases. We look forward to seeing everyone there!
I am also excited to share two wonderful pieces of news with our Blue Jay community!
First, we received a $10,000 grant from H-E-B! This generous grant will allow us to purchase a set of Chromebooks for one of our classrooms, further supporting our students' learning and access to technology. We are so grateful to H-E-B for investing in our school and our students!
Second, St. Pius X Catholic School has been named the first-place winner in the Preschool category of the Best of the Best 2026 in Corpus Christi! After being nominated among the top three, we are incredibly humbled and grateful to receive this honor. Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for our wonderful school and support our Blue Jay family.
A special shout-out goes to Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Amy for their dedication and hard work, as well as to all the teachers and staff members, past and present, who have contributed to making St. Pius X the special place it is today. This recognition reflects the love, commitment, and faith that have been at the heart of our school throughout the years. Congratulations, Blue Jays!
Finally, please be sure to mark your calendars for February 6, 2027, as we celebrate our first-ever Gala! We look forward to gathering with our school families, parish, alumni, and community members to celebrate 60 years of faith, learning, and excellence at St. Pius X Catholic School. It will be a wonderful opportunity to honor our history and look forward to the bright future ahead.
Thank you for your continued support, prayers, and commitment to our school community. It is a blessing to serve alongside such wonderful families as we continue our mission to develop the whole child in a Christ-centered environment.
May God continue to bless our Blue Jay families!
In His Name,
Mrs. Beth Hinojosa
