The Glance

As we get into the final quarter of the school year, take a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate growth. Each student’s journey is marked not only by academic progress, but by perseverance, curiosity, and character developed along the way.

The weeks ahead are filled with opportunity—opportunities to deepen learning, strengthen friendships, and fully embrace all that remains in this school year. From the classroom to Chapel, the arts to athletics, this final stretch is about finishing strong with intention, joy, and purpose.

Thank you for your continued partnership as we support and encourage our students to end the year in a way that is both meaningful and memorable. Together, we look forward to all that lies ahead on the Hilltop!

In honor of the Spurs making the playoffs, the Holts have generously donated Spurs x St. Luke’s T-shirts to help our community celebrate in style!

Students will be sent home with their T-shirt the week prior and are invited to wear it to school on Monday, April 13 with jeans or uniform bottoms, plus any fun Spurs accessories.

Let’s show our school spirit and cheer on the Spurs together—Go Spurs Go! 🖤🤍🏀

We’re excited to launch Dads Pickup Basketball, a fun and low-pressure way for dads in our community to connect and build relationships! Led by a St. Luke’s parent, this weekly game tips off Wednesday, March 25 at 6:00 p.m. in the McNab Gymnasium and will continue each Wednesday through the end of the school year.

No experience necessary—just come ready to play. A waiver will be required for participation.

For more information, please contact Scott Allen at greatscott0613@gmail.com or 210-862-8827.

Come out, get active, and be part of this great community tradition in the making! 🐯

As we return from Easter Break, we invite all families to participate in one of our most meaningful traditions—Flowering of the Cross on Tuesday, April 7.

Please have your child bring a fresh flower from home to help transform the cross into a beautiful symbol of new life and resurrection. This simple act is a powerful way for our community to come together in celebration of the Easter season.

We look forward to seeing the cross come to life with the beauty of our shared offering. 🌸✝️

GO TIGERS!!!

As we prepare for the upcoming visit from Bishop Angela Cortiñas in May, St. Luke’s Church will begin youth catechism and confirmation classes today, March 22. Open to all youth, these 9-week classes will take place during the 10 a.m. formation hour and offer a chance to explore what the Episcopal Church teaches, why we worship the way we do, and what it means to be part of the Body of Christ. For youth in 8th grade or above, these classes will also serve as preparation for Confirmation during the Bishop’s visit. Confirmation is a meaningful step in the life of faith, where young people reaffirm their baptismal promises and are fully received into the life of the Church.

Where: St. Luke’s Youth Room

When: Sundays beginning TODAY, March 22 | 10:00–10:45 a.m.

If your youth is interested in being confirmed or you have questions, please reach out to Bryan at bryang@slecsa.org.
