Kindergarten had so much fun at the Quincy Children's Museum this afternoon!
Do you love what St. Dominic School is doing to help form disciples of Christ and souls for Heaven? Below is a testimonial from one of our school alumna. We are so blessed by the support we receive from our families and our community!...
"When looking back on my years at St. Dominic School, I’ll always remember playing different instruments in Mrs. Wood’s music class or having morning assemblies and asking Mrs. Kelley what we were having for lunch. I will also never forget the opportunity of going to Mass every week on Wednesdays and talking with classmates at lunch knowing they had my back whenever I needed them.
Not very long ago, as I walked the familiar hallways of St. Dominic, I realized just how deeply this school shaped who I am today. At the time, I couldn’t fully grasp the impact it would have—but now I clearly see the gift it gave me: a strong foundation rooted in faith, community, and purpose. St. Dominic School didn’t just educate me; it helped form the values that guide my life.
St. Dominic School continues to do this important work every day. Through dedicated teachers, meaningful traditions, and a faith-filled environment, students are learning compassion, service, and what it means to live as Christians in their communities. These experiences are shaping the next generation, just as they once shaped me and my fellow alumni.
I invite you to support our wonderful school. Your donation will ensure that future students will get the same benefits and opportunities that meant so much to me. Thank you for being a valued part of the St. Dominic’s community and for helping carry its mission forward!
'Give, and gifts will be given to you.' -Luke 6:38"
Sincerely,
Ellie Price

Ms Crystal and Ms. Deana's grey dolphin preschoolers had a fun week celebrating Easter! We painted wooden eggs, used water colors to reveal letters on eggs ,which spelled 3 letter words and we would see if we could sound out those words, and we painted with peeps. Outside we found a worm which was very exciting! Some of our friends built some awesome things using the magnetic blocks. We ended the week with an egg hunt with our 4th grade buddies where we had to find eggs with our names on them. It was so nice to be back together after a week off.
The Family Portal link in the St. Dominic School App is now fixed. If you are still experiencing problems logging in through the St. Dominic School App uninstall and reinstall the app to update the settings.

Ms. Crystals preschoolers had an egg drop today. Each student made their own device to help keep the egg safe and we tested them out! A few of them cracked one broke but majority made it! It was fun to see all the creative ideas they came up with!
Do you love what St. Dominic School is doing to help form disciples of Christ? Below is a testimonial from one of our school grandparents. We are so blessed by the support we receive from our families and our community!...
"I am very proud to say that I am a graduate of St. Anthony School and Quincy Notre Dame. My granddaughter is in kindergarten this year at St. Dominic School and absolutely loves it! When she started going in preschool, she called it her "Jesus school". She loves talking about Jesus and being able to pray at school.
If a child is struggling, the staff and parents help each other work out the issues. No one has to do it alone! The whole staff is very friendly and caring and knows each child by name.
I have been going to the Children's Mass at school on Wednesday mornings, and it's such a joy to hear the children singing and taking part in the readings.
I also really like the Buddy System. The older students help the younger students become who they are, and that's being kind and caring role models. I love walking through the halls, seeing and hearing how they talk to each other and how courteous they are.
St. Dominic's is truly a wonderful school with a great staff! I have seen firsthand where "Holy Moments Happen Every Day"!
Please help support St. Dominic's Fund Drive!"
In love and sincerity,
Nadine Messmer

13 baby chicks have hatched! They are adored.
8th grade had a great field trip to visit the home of some talented artists from our parish. What a beautiful example of using our talents to create something joyful! ❤️❤️
Baby chick update- we have 3 that have hatched this morning and many more coming!
Second grade has been working with author, Tracy Schlepphorst, to create a book about animals. The students are so excited to be a part of her book!
