(July 15, 2025) — It’s time to dig out those school uniforms and spirit wear items that don’t fit and that sports equipment your kiddos have outgrown for the PTO Used Uniform and Sports Equipment Sale! Drop off your items from July 15-25, 2025 in the marked bins in the link between the church and parish center. All items should be clean and gently used. Allowed sports donations are those which we offer here at St. Philomena School: softball, soccer, golf, wrestling, volleyball, track, cross country and basketball. Sports shoes are accepted if they are in good, usable condition.
SALE LOCATION CHANGE: The sale will take place on July 27 in the parish center basement from 8:30 a.m. – 1 p.m.

Chess National Tournament
Posted by spadmin
(May 29, 2025) — In May, Evan Van Ryn, Leo Van Ryn, Lawrence Van Ryn, and Ben Ibeck from the St. Philomena School Chess Club competed at the US Chess 2025 Supernationals in Orlando, FL. This tournament included 5,000 participants. In the middle school U1400 section, our Tigers placed 8th.
Lawrence placed 11th overall and Ben placed 16th overall, with 5.5 points out of 7 and 5 points out of 7 respectively. Evan and Leo contributed to the team result.
Ben has only been competing for 1.5 years. This finish is a really big individual achievement for him at the largest tournament in the country.
A special shout out for our 4th grader, Leo, who played up in the Middle School section so our team could have a full roster of four kids.
