There will be NO SCHOOL today, February 7th due to significant illness in the buildings. Have a good weekend and stay healthy.
Good afternoon,
As most of you are aware we have had huge numbers of sick students this week. The last 3 days the numbers have hovered around 30% of our students being out of the buildings sick or being sent home sick. I was hoping it would be better today but it is not. With that being said, I am closing both campuses of Piqua Catholic tomorrow, Friday, February 7th. Hopefully having this 3 day break will put everyone on the mend. I am attaching a flier that explains what to do in regard to when your child can return to school after being sick. We are asking that you follow these guidelines to help keep everyone healthy.
Thank you and hope to see everyone back here feeling great!

To ensure all families have the opportunity to respond, we have extended the opt-out form deadline to Friday, February 7th, 2025. If you wish to opt your child out of any of these programs, please contact the school office to complete the necessary form.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Specific questions about the programs can be sent to Mrs. Mascarenhas at amascarenhas1@udayton.edu.

This is a message from Our Lady of Fatima Family of Parishes’ pastor, Fr. Eric Bowman.
Effective today, Erin Freisthler is no longer employed by Piqua Catholic School.
Fr. Eric accepted her resignation from her position as principal. I am grateful to Mrs. Freisthler for her contributions to our school for the last five months, and I wish her all the best in the future.
Cyndi Cathcart, current principal of St. Patrick Catholic School, has agreed to serve as interim principal of Piqua Catholic School. Assistant principals are still in place in each building for the remainder of the school year. Our students, staff and school families will continue to be filled with a quality, faith-driven Catholic education. Ms. Cathcart is looking forward to seeing staff and students at school Masses and in the classrooms this week!
The search for a new principal will begin in the coming months, with the objective to fill the position for the 2025-2026 school year.
