St. Vincent de Paul Catholic School

🐯💚💛Ready to Lead. Ready to Serve. 💚💛🐯

Even during the summer months, our dedicated volunteers are hard at work investing in the future of SVdP!

Last week, members of the SVdP Advisory School Council attended the 2026 Archdiocesan Advisory Council Workshop, joining school leaders from across the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

From strategic planning and financial stewardship to effective teamwork and governance, our council members gained valuable tools and fresh perspectives to better support Father Sean, Principal Thompson, and the entire SVdP community.

The Advisory School Council is already rolling up its sleeves ready to help move our mission forward in the year ahead. SVdP is grateful for their leadership, dedication, and service, and we are excited for all that lies ahead this year!

🐯🔥 They’re back and ready to ROAR! 🔥🐯

Our 2026–2027 Tiger Cheerleaders are back from summer camp in College Station with new routines, new friendships, and plenty of Tiger Pride! 📣

After a week of hard work, learning, and team building, they’re ready to bring the energy to every game and pep rally this season. Go Tigers! 💚📣💛🐯

Happy first official day of summer, Tiger families! ☀️🐯 Here’s to sunshine, sweet memories, family time, and plenty of summer fun. Enjoy every moment, and we can’t wait to welcome our Tigers back for an incredible 2026–2027 school year at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic School! 😎☀️🎉🐯💛💚

Our 5th graders explored the miracle of life in Religion class by “adopting” a classroom baby and tracking its growth each week. 👶✨ From orange-seed beginnings to a tiny beating heart, students discovered the beauty of God’s creation.

The unit ended with a baby shower celebration benefiting the SVdP Gabriel Project and a fun “Guess Who the Baby Is” game featuring student baby photos! 🩵💕 Special thanks to our parent volunteers for coordinating such a meaningful celebration.

At our final school Mass with the 8th grade class, Fr. Sean introduced a meaningful new tradition to our school community: the Pass the Light Ceremony 🕯️✨

During this special celebration, our 8th grade students received a candle lit from the Easter Candle 🕯️ and a blessing from Fr. Sean. They then passed that light to the current 7th grade students, symbolizing the transition of leadership and responsibility

This powerful moment represents more than tradition—it reflects the passing of faith, service, and community

As our 8th graders prepare to move on, they entrust the light to the next class of leaders, who will carry it forward in the year ahead 🌟

Once a Tiger, always a Tiger 🐯💛💚

SVDP loved welcoming back to campus the Class of 2022 before their high school graduation! From college shirts to yearbooks and sweet memories shared on campus, it was a joy to have them back home at SVDP.

We are so proud of these students and pray God continues to guide them as they take their next steps.
