Many Catholic Schools Week events were on the schedule at St. Joseph School in Auburn Jan. 30.
Students in preschool through second grade toured the neighboring St. Alphonsus Church while middle school students were able to try out different jobs at the school as part of “In Our Vocations” day.
During the last hour of the day, the fifth grade class celebrated Special Person’s day, for which they invited relatives to watch skits and tour the school.
