St. Ignatius 8th Graders Complete Service Project


St. Ignatius eighth graders lead several service projects throughout the school year including Backpack Ministry, Sacrifice Your Latte’, Foodpacking Drive and most recently helping Underground Mobile and Vagabond Ministries gather food and snacks for at-risk youth. Vagabond Ministries focuses on ministering to inner city youth in Mobile. St. Ignatius was happy to help support this amazing cause. The St. Ignatius middle school experience is built on leadership. We love providing opportunities for our students to lead and serve. We have found that providing so many leadership roles in our school community helps them have great character outside of school as well. Great job eighth grade!

















































St. Ignatius 3rd Graders Shine in “The Lions, the Switch & the Warm Robes”!


Each year St. Ignatius third grade students put on a play. They get to weigh in on what they want to produce and this year they picked a religious based play following the “Chronicles of Daniel and the God Who Saves”. These Impalas dazzled the audience with group songs, several solos and amazing scenes. We have some talented Impalas in third grade! At St. Ignatius, every student 2K-8th has at least one performance a year. We believe these performances help building public speaking skills, leadership skills and confidence. We especially love ingraining the fine arts into our curriculum as well. Great job, third grade!

St. Ignatius Lifesavers Group


St. Ignatius middle school students gather outside of the Women’s Resource Center each Friday during Lent at 6:30 in the morning to pray the rosary. Each week there is a different speaker to help educate our youth on what being Pro-Life really means. This club is optional for St. Ignatius middle school students yet over 90% show up each Friday for prayer and fellowship. Giving up sleep for a young person is a hard thing to do. We are blessed by the strong Catholic leaders in our school and parish who have helped inspire such a dedicated group of Lifesavers.
