“Catholic schools carry out a great mission, to serve God by building knowledge and character... By teaching the word of
God, you prepare your students to follow a path of virtue. George W. Bush
St. Rose School students were given a presentation on Thursday, Jan., 17th with Dr.
Whitney Territo. This was part of the Realeyes program sponsored by the Central
OH Ohio Optometric Association. The goal of the Realeyes program is to teach
young people about their eyes and how to protect them in a fun and educational
way. We strive to make the presentations interactive and enjoyable for all involved.
PreK and Kindergarten presentations involved a sing-a-long component.
Realeyes presentations involved a movie component. This is a link to the movie on

The Blessing of
the Throats is a
sacramental of
the Roman Cath-
olic Church, cele-
brated on Febru-
ary 3, the feast
day of Saint Blaise of Sebastes.
Devotions like walking the Sta-
tions of the Cross during Lent,
receiving ashes on Ash Wednes-
day, kissing the cross on Good
Friday and getting our throats
blessed on St. Blaise day are es-
sential parts of our Catholic line-
age. Each ceremony or ritual ex-
cites us, elevates our hearts; we
come away refreshed and with a
sense that something beyond the
ordinary has just happened, not
just to us but to thousands of the
faithful that same day in every
corner of the world. We can’t help
but know that it’s good to be
Catholic.
