This March 24th marks 46 years since the martyrdom of St. Oscar Romero, whose feast day falls just two days after the Fifth Sunday of Lent. During Lent in 1978, Romero said: "The Church is the voice of the people's conscience; she is the prayer that reaches up toward God and reaches down to console the families who place their trust in her."
God of Life and Peace, you inspired your servant, Oscar Romero, to be a prophetic witness for justice and peace. Open our hearts to the sound of your call for peace in these times. Give us the courage to respond and the wisdom to know how. Help us to quell all violence in our world, especially that violence for which we are directly responsible. Let us call all people brother and sister and contribute in palpable ways to the transformation of the world.
Amen.
DSJ Catholic Schools Visioning Process
PLEASE COMPLETE THIS SURVEY BY MARCH 25TH
The Diocese of San José has launched a Catholic Schools Visioning Process to prayerfully discern how our 32 Catholic schools can best serve their mission of academic excellence, faith formation, and service to others. As a current school family, you are at the heart of this work.
We are asking you to take 5–10 minutes to complete a brief, confidential survey. Your honest feedback about what is working, what could be stronger, and what you hope for in the years ahead — will directly shape the priorities we set together for the future of Catholic education in our diocese.
The survey is ONLY open from March 18th — 25th. It is completely confidential, and there are no wrong answers.
Thank you for your partnership. We are grateful every day for the families who make our schools what they are.
In faith and gratitude,
Diocese of San José Department of Catholic Schools

The Future is Here: AI, Teens, and Education
Virtual Event: Next Wednesday, March 25th; 6 - 7:30 p.m.
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly shaping the world our students are learning to navigate. We invite parents to join us for Part 1 of a two-part series on AI and education, designed to help families better understand this evolving landscape. Our first session will be a virtual event providing an accessible introduction to AI — what it is, how teens are encountering it, and what effects it has on the education landscape. Part 2 of this series will take place in the fall and will feature an expert guest speaker who will offer a deeper dive into the broader implications of AI for education and the future our students are preparing to enter.
