Our Lady of Victory Catholic School
Scouting
Boys and girls in all grade levels at Our Lady of Victory Catholic School participate in Scouting. Scouting can help build children’s character, fitness, and citizenship. Many students pursue scouting religious emblems as another way to continue their faith development.
OLVCS has supported and benefited from numerous scouting service projects including Boy Scout Eagle Projects, as well as Girl Scout Silver and/or Gold Award projects.
