Letter from the PresidentDear CTK Families, This past Sunday, I was inspired by Monsignor Ben Kasteel at mass. He spoke of John the Baptist and how he was a voice for Jesus. Well, I believe I am a “small” voice who has been selected as President for Home & School Association. It is in this position; I have acted on behalf of our great school and worked to facilitate involvement in our community and our church. I am a servant who has found out, that by helping others it can have a huge impact on our school/church. Again, I am only a voice; none of the work can be done without the involvement of our wonderful families. Thank you. It is also at this time I request all our families, to come back home. If you or someone in your family has spent time away from church – it is now time to return. It is now time to find the comfort you and your family can have by attending mass together and with your friends. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Charlotte Amato: Raffle NewsJust a reminder....... The Electronics Raffle is well underway. Extra tickets are available if you need them for over the holidays. You can pick them up from Christy Duran, Mrs. Guzman, or Elsa Hernandez. There will also be a table set up at the Christmas program on Thursday evening and outside the gym on Friday morning before school. There are 20 great prizes and the drawing will be held at the Teacher Appreciation Dinner and Dance on January 31st. $500.00 cash goes to the family who sells the most tickets. Also, beginning in January we will have weekly prize drawings during morning prayer for students who have brought back their 15 tickets. Remember this is our largest fund raiser for the year so get out there and SELL, SELL, SELL.

PSIA Invitational News! 1st grade: J'Lynn Perez (1st Creative Writing & 1st Storytelling) 2nd grade: Meghan Periera Carter Torrence (3rd Spelling) 4th grade: Alex Luera (3rd Spelling) Nikki Diaz CTK Sports News As fall sports start to wind down, we’d like to take time to pat all of our student athletes on the back! The 2008 fall season was once again a productive one for all of our sports teams. The junior high volleyball team competed in the West Texas Christian Athletes Association (WTCAA) and place 2nd in the district. The junior high football team also competed in WTCAA and placed 3rd in their division. Competing at the TAPPS State Cross Country Championships for the first time in October, the CTK girls team took home CTK’s first team TAPPS championship title! Sophomore Audrey Alambar and freshman Payton Scharfenberg finished third and eighth, respectively, to lead their team to the top. All five girls who ran placed in the top 25. The boys team had two runners in the top 15 including sophomore Jason Saiz (who placed 14th) and junior Jordan Saiz (who placed 15th). These finishes gave the boys a fourth place team finish. The high school volleyball team made it to the playoffs this year by placing 3rd in TAPPS 1A District 1 after a tie-breaking playoff game against Plainview Christian. The girls traveled to Dallas to play Dallas Tyler Street and won their first TAPPS bi-district championship in an exciting game. The girls ended their season in the area playoff against a Houston area team, Bellville Faith Academy. Also, congratulations to the High School Varsity football team on their TAPPS 1-1A district championship which they shared with two other district teams! CTK along with El Paso Jesus and Amarillo Classical Heritage tied for district with the same record, 2-1. CTK’s football team has made it to the playoffs every year since joining TAPPS in the 2006 season. CTK moved on to the bi-district playoffs on November 15th against Duncanville Christway in the Dallas area where their season ended. Many thanks to all the fans who came out to watch our teams run and play! Thanks too to our fabulous coaches – Coach Wellman, Coach Catherman, Coach Molina, Coach Butler, and Coach Leatherwood. We invite you to come out and support our junior high & high school basketball teams – visit the school’s website ctkcathedralschool.org for schedules. Basketball Season Passes Now On Sale!!
