In November of 2014, Bishop John Quinn of the Diocese of Winona visited St. Casimir’s School in Wells to join in the celebration of the school’s centennial year of education.  Now that St. Casimir’s School has entered into their next 100 years, Bishop Quinn returned to St. Casimir’s to dine with the families and staff, the governing board and council members.

According to a press release, he congratulated the school on its status as the sole parochial school in Faribault County.

Following the meal blessing, Bishop Quinn’s conversations with those present included sharing his gratitude to the parents who stand strong as their child’s first teachers of the faith and who continue in that path by sending their children to St. Casimir’s School where their efforts are supported both spiritually and educationally. The bishop also shared his thanksgiving to those who work tirelessly to ensure St. Casimir’s School is available to families for another 100 years.
