Honoring Our Heritage
The name “Saint Ann” holds a special place in the hearts of many of our parishioners
and the broader community. Saint Ann, the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary and
grandmother of Jesus Christ, symbolizes the nurturing and foundational role of family
and education in our faith. By adopting this name, we pay tribute to the legacy of Saint
Ann and the generations of families who have been part of our school community.
A Legacy of Excellence
For decades, Communion of Saints School has been a beacon of academic excellence
and spiritual growth. Our dedicated faculty and staff have worked tirelessly to provide a
nurturing environment where students can thrive academically, spiritually, and socially.
The renaming to Saint Ann School at Communion of Saints Parish reaffirms our
commitment to these core values and our mission to educate the whole child.
Securing the Future
As we look to the future, this name change represents our dedication to continuing the
tradition of providing high-quality Catholic education. Saint Ann School at Communion
of Saints Parish will continue to offer a rigorous academic curriculum, rooted in Catholic
values, that prepares students for success in an ever-changing world. We are excited to
build on our strong foundation and to welcome new generations of students and families
into our community.
Join Us in Celebration
We invite all members of the community to join us in celebrating this exciting new
chapter in our school’s history. A special Mass and dedication ceremony will be held in
the fall at a to-be-determined date at Communion of Saints Parish – Saint Ann Church.
We look forward to sharing this joyous occasion with you.
