Teachers, school parents and students share in the festivities of the day.

The recent San Diego St. Patrick’s Day Parade was well represented by St. Vincent’s school, complete with Principal Sr. Kathleen Walsh leading the float entry, riding in a convertible Shelby Mustang and waving to the large crowd with Irish flags.

The school parents and students alike, all busily got to work on the school yard the day before the parade to construct the float with a background of green shimmer and hand cut-outs of the school students as well as rainbow posters of hand and feet rainbows from the St. Vincent’s Pre-school students.

Many students and parents walked with the entry and also rode on the float, proudly waving to the well- received crowd.

“We had the best-decorated float and the most spirit,” said Principal, Sr. Kathleen Walsh.

St. Vincent’s School is a Catholic, co-educational elementary school founded in 1949 in the Mission Hills neighborhood of San Diego and is ccredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
