In a creative environment, St. Patrick’s School provides an exceptional, technology-enriched education to develop knowledge, stimulate growth and form life-enriching experiences.

Nearly 200 students from more than 30 schools participated in the first annual Arch Media Awards. This multimedia journalism program challenges students and their moderators to produce 60-90 second packages that tell a story just as it is done by reporters and editors around the world. The theme assigned was “What Makes My School Catholic.” While the COVID-19 crisis prevented the awards from being held at the Sheen Center for Thought and Culture, this video, featuring Msgr. James Vlaun from the Catholic Faith Network, Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Michael J. Deegan and celebrity guest, CBS2 Chief Meteorologist Lonnie Quinn is a wonderful salute to the winning submissions and all those who made the first Archies a roaring success!
