Catholic schools invite public to open houses

The Catholic schools of the Archdiocese of Denver are inviting the public to “Take Another Look” at the many benefits of Catholic education and its promises of Catholic faith formation, nurturing community, reinforced family environment and rigorous academic curriculum. At this time of year, many schools are holding open houses, inviting prospective students and their parents to visit the classrooms and talk with teachers and principals about Catholic education.  To follow are some of the events being offered in the coming weeks. If you don’t see a school you’re interested in listed, give them a call to find out when you can visit.
