A Culture of Feasting

At St. Jerome Institute, the place of liturgical life extends beyond weekly Mass and acknowledging Holy Days of Obligation, as throughout the school year we enjoy a number of school feasts. On the days of Michaelmas, All Hallowsmass, Immaculate Conception, Epiphany, Annunciation, Our Lady of Guadalupe, and many others, the school comes together and enjoys an enormous celebratory meal.  Each feast day includes food, music, poetry, and unique school traditions associated with that day.  Games, competitions, and live music conclude these joy-filled days.
