Next week is National Catholic Schools Week, and St. Michael’s Catholic School in Sigel will have activities throughout the week to celebrate.

Nick Niemerg is the principal at St. Michael’s. He says the events to be held will vary each day of the week.

Niemerg says bringing Catholic teachings into the curriculum at Catholic schools makes a big impact on the child’s education.

Niemerg says that in addition to the core curriculum, another positive of Catholic education is teaching kids to treat people right and being able to challenge their students to new heights.
