Students had a wonderful week at Alverno Heights Academy! Campus Ministry hosted Blessing of the Jerseys for soccer and basketball. Volleyball senior Merielle was awarded the Soledad League MVP award for her leadership and skill on the court. Soccer won their two games agains Mission and Cantwell. Government students posed for our yearbook photographers. Seniors completed a great project, creating a visual to represent a woman that has contributed to the feminist movement. Lastly, we hosted our last 8th grade visiting day of the year, welcoming students and parents from a variety of schools. It has been a busy and wonderful beginning of 2023. Coming up next week, soccer and basketball continue their seasons, the Mamma Mia cast continue rehearsals and students will be attending Winter Formal on Saturday!
