Catholic Schools Week at St. Ann School was a time for celebration, prayer, fun, and community. The theme for this year’s week was “Let Your Light Shine,” inspired by the powerful words of Jesus in Matthew 5:14-16: “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.” Throughout the week, we came together as a school family to reflect on God’s love, serve our community, and let our light shine in all we do.

At St. Ann School, we believe that every child’s journey through education is a unique and important one. Our 4K wrap care program, Little Branches, offers something truly special for our youngest learners. It’s not just a place for free play after the school day ends—it’s a rich, faith-based environment designed to nurture academic growth, social development, and emotional well-being.

When it comes to learning Spanish, some students might feel overwhelmed by new vocabulary, tricky pronunciations, or different sentence structures. But for Kalyn Eith, the challenge is exactly what makes teaching Spanish so exciting. Kalyn, the dynamic and enthusiastic Spanish teacher at St. Ann’s, is not only sharing her love for the language but also making it a fun, immersive experience for students from preschool through eighth grade.

In 1967, Fran Luther and her husband, John, were newlyweds eager to make their mark in a new town. They moved to Stoughton, where John’s service in the Army Reserves would often keep him away, and Fran found herself seeking ways to get involved in their new community. Her journey began on a Sunday morning, just after their arrival, when she walked to the local church to attend Mass. At that time, the church was a small chapel nestled within Nazareth House, the nursing home beside the rectory. The parish was young, with only a handful of Catholics in the area—Stoughton was, after all, predominantly Lutheran.
