Our Father Allouez 3rd Grade classes have been learning about animal life cycles in their “Project Lead the Way Science Module”. The students discover it takes 21 days for a chick to hatch. On Day 18, the egg turner comes out and the teachers candle an egg to see if there has been growth inside the egg. The students learn that not all the eggs will hatch and some chicks may become weak during the hatching process. This year the 3rd Graders are blessed to have three healthy chicks actively playing and chirping in the classroom!! 🐣🐥🐓🤩🌟🌟🌟🙏🏼
Today we are putting a spotlight on one of our outstanding GRACE Food Service Managers from Father Allouez Catholic School (FACS), Ms. Patty Bradshaw!
She has been serving students at the Resurrection campus for more than 15 years!
Thank you, Ms. Bradshaw!

Each Lent our 4th Grade Students present a beautiful depiction of the Stations of the Cross. They work on their presentation beginning in January.
Each ‘actor’ is proud of the work they put in to poignantly tell the Way of the Cross. Their families and fellow students come to witness their portrayal of Jesus’ final journey of love. As we know, He loved us so much that He gave up his life for us. Whether performing the parts or praying along, we are all reminded that to give our love to others is to show our love to God.
In the conclusion of our GRACE Outstanding Volunteer Spotlights for 2024-25, GRACE is delighted to recognize Heather Milbach. Heather was presented with this award at a Mass on February 20th.
For the past seven years, Heather has helped Father Allouez Catholic School in every imaginable way: in some big ways, and often just as important, in a thousand little ways. She volunteers as a Girl Scout leader and in the lunchroom, serving meals and cleaning up with a smile. Every year she works tirelessly on the Auction Fundraiser — these past two years as a Co-Chair! Heather is also Vice-Chair of the Site Advisory Council, where she leads the “Activities and Community Outreach” branch and her light shines through her presence at Resurrection Parish — on Pastoral Council, where she serves as a school liaison, and when she helps with Hospitality after Masses, with Generations of Disciples, and with Vacation Bible School.
Heather is always there when called upon: for Field Day, for Catholic Schools Week, to substitute teach, and for her many other community roles and contributions. Her dedication to her wider community is vast.
Heather, we are incredibly grateful for all the kindness, wisdom, and dedication you put into serving our school. One of our great blessings is having the light of people like Heather Milbach in our midst!

Statistically about 3.12% of babies born in the U.S. are twins. But at Father Allouez Catholic School, we seem to have had remarkable numbers of twins, especially in several eras. Check out two examples: the black and white photo is our sets of twins featured in a Green Bay Press-Gazette photo in 1947; the more recent photo of our twins is from 60 years later in 2017!
FATHER ALLOUEZ CATHOLIC SCHOOL Volunteer Award, 2024-25
As a school family, we at Father Allouez can think of no volunteer who does more to lighten our load than Heather Milbach. Heather, you are the light on the lampstand that Christ tells us about: in so many moments our community shines brighter because of you!
For the past seven years Heather has helped us in every imaginable way: in some big ways, and often just as important, in a thousand little ways.
Her light shines as a Girl Scout leader, when our scouts learn through activities, teamwork, and service.
Her light shines in the Lunchroom when she cheerfully helps our Food Service team, serving meals and cleaning up with a smile.
Her light shines every year when she works tirelessly on our Auction Fundraiser — these past two years as a Co-Chair!
Her light shines through in her role as Vice-Chair of our Site Advisory Council, where she leads the “Activities and Community Outreach” branch. Not only is she at each of the events, but she helps make them GO, largely responsible for the details.
Her light shone bright when we turned to her to represent parents and parishioners on last year’s Principal Selection Committee.
Heather’s light shines through her presence at Resurrection Parish — on Pastoral Council, where she serves as a school liaison, and when she helps with Hospitality after Masses, with Generations of Disciples, and with Vacation Bible School.
Her light glows each time we call her when we’re in a pinch: for Field Day, for Catholic Schools Week, to sub in for someone who can’t make it!
We know her light shines brightly in her role as Community Relations Manager at Schreiber Foods, and in her community outreach that includes her service as a Junior Achievement Classroom volunteer; and through Big Brothers, Big Sisters; the American Cancer Society; the Howe Resource Center; and the Chamber of Commerce.
Most of all, Heather’s light shines brightest as a wife to her teammate Zach, and as a mother to their wonderful children Parker, Rowan, and Watson! Her joyful, humble, servant heart is a beautiful parenting example.
Heather we are incredibly grateful for all the kindness, wisdom, and dedication you put into serving us. One of our great blessings at Father Allouez is having the light of people like Heather Milbach in our midst!
This past week our elementary students and teachers enjoyed a tradition that they have come to love praying together, in song: the Divine Mercy Chaplet. It is precious to hear them fervently praying it. Through this beautiful chanted prayer, our students learn about God’s great mercy, that we can always put our trust in Him, and that we should love and forgive others just as He loves and forgives! 🌟🙏🕊 💙💚📿 #PrayerTraditions #DivineMercy #WeAreGRACEgb

Our fearless leader Principal Dempsey was out clearing the sidewalks this morning to make it safe for others! And our staff and students are inclined to do the same. Everyday acts of service are something we encourage in our students (like Max shown brushing off a teacher’s car). In EVERY season we try to live out the mission message we derive from the acronym WOLVES (Our Father Allouez mascot): “Welcoming Others! Loving Vibrantly! Encouraging Service! – as disciples of God.” It is a motto we repeat each school morning with our entire student body: PK3 through 8th Grade. It is a powerful anchoring reminder of who we hope to be.
