What do you want for your children? "When I drop my daughter of at school, a sense of peace comes over me. Not only is she physically safe, but her spirit is being nourished.

Nazareth Academy Catholic School invites you to become a permanent part of our renovated playground by purchasing a commemorative brick. The renovated playground will give our students the opportunity to play outside in a safer environment. The playground will include a rubber fall zone under the play equipment, a turf field, a track area, new half-court play areas, and covered rest areas. Purchasing a brick is an easy way to leave a lasting legacy on the Nazareth Academy campus while helping to fund the playground area renovation project.

On July 24, 1990, the National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus of the United States designated November as Black Catholic History Month to celebrate the long history and proud heritage of Black Catholics.

More importantly, November not only marks a time when we pray for all saints and souls in loving remembrance, but also a time to recall the saints and souls of Africa and the African Diaspora.
