Shakopee Area Catholic School is a ministry of the Parish of Saints Joachim and Anne. At SACS, our Catholic Faith is our foundation and the key to our success.
Catholic values are intertwined in everything we do. We celebrate our Catholic Faith through:
Weekly Mass
Prayer at the beginning and end of each day
Preparing children for the sacraments of First Reconciliation, First Eucharist, and Confirmation
Opportunities for the sacrament of Confession
Celebrating Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter, along with other Holy Days
Eucharistic Adoration
Daily religious instruction
Monday morning convocation (middle school)
Virtues and values instruction
Middle school retreats
Our school family includes many non-Catholic students, who are drawn to our commitment to academic success and teaching the whole student. We teach respect for people of other faiths and encourage the development of values that are important for all people.
