Bach’s Lunch

Bach’s Lunch

Every Wednesday, students at Cistercian sign up to showcase their musical talents during Bach’s Lunch—a lunchtime performance series hosted in Founders Hall. This semester, we’ve enjoyed a variety of performances from piano and violin solos to vocal ensembles; it’s a great way to enjoy the middle of the week, music, and lunch together!

Form III Field Study

Form III had the privilege of touring the Dallas Holocaust Museum. The boys demonstrated exceptional respect, curiosity, and thoughtfulness, readily answering docent questions and asking meaningful ones of their own.

Oliver Jr. opened to a SOLDOUT audience. Our cast of 26 middle school boys dazzled the crowd in multiple song and dance numbers. This is our biggest production in quite some time.

Retreats

Retreats

Some of life’s best lessons are learned outside of the classroom. Form III and Form VI enjoyed their retreats off campus! Students took a break from their usual schedules to reflect, connect, and just be boys. The day was filled with games, artistic exploration, thoughtful discussions, and Mass—a meaningful time for growth and formation.

Silence and the Word

Silence and the Word

When Moses asks God to provide a name that he might share with the enslaved Israelites in Egypt, “God replied to Moses: ‘I am who I am.’ Then He added: ‘This is what you will tell the Israelites: I am has sent me to you.’ God spoke further to Moses: ‘This is what you will say to the Israelites: The Lord, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:14-15).
