Newsies Jr. will captivate audiences at the Upcoming Spring Musical
The Disney play, Newsies Jr., will be performed in the St. Dominic Savio Catholic High School gym from April 9 -11. Look for a large cast with a variety of ages and personalities with a show start time of 7 p.m. each night.
When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys' expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies Newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the Newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what's right.

Savio Choir Earns Division I Honors at TAPPS Solo & Ensemble
Under the direction of Ms. Clarissa Soto, the Savio Choir achieved an outstanding milestone last Friday at the TAPPS Solo & Ensemble competition, earning a Division I (Superior) rating for their ensemble performance, the highest distinction awarded. In addition to the ensemble success, four Savio students performed individual solo pieces and each received a Division I rating.

Savio Alumni Inspire the Next Generation of Creatives
We were thrilled to welcome Savio alumni Caitlin ’21 and Connor ’17 Neill back to campus yesterday! The sisters, both former AP Art students, spoke with Mrs. Robbins’ advanced art classes about their creative journey and the two brands they co-founded, Moodz & Vibez Boutique and Good Vibez Collegiate. They also shared what they learned during their time at St. Dominic Savio Catholic High School and how those lessons continue to shape their work today. A thoughtful Q&A followed, making for an insightful and inspiring conversation.
We love seeing our St. Dominic Savio Alumni using their gifts and giving back to the Savio community!
