The University of Cincinnati celebrates this week's Bearcat Friday winner. The University of Cincinnati Athletic Department developed a way for businesses and campus offices around the country to join in on the fun and show their pride for the University. Bearcats Fridays is scheduled to run throughout the year.
This week's BEARCAT FRIDAY WINNER IS ST. CLEMENT SCHOOL! The BEARCAT mascot visited St. Clement today to deliver UC items to employees and students wearing red and black.
"Saint Clement School has enjoyed showing their pride in their hometown teams. We've joined in the spirit of sportsmanship and civic pride by using our enthusiasm for the Crosstown Shootout to hold our own Crosstown Helpout. During our Crosstown Helpout, we're practicing our Franciscan values by having collected can goods to donate to a local food pantry. We pray our donations help other families during this Advent season," said Linda Westendorf, principal of St. Clement School.
St. Clement School is located on Vine Street in St. Bernard. Their primary mission includes the formal teaching of the Catholic Faith and the communication, the development, and the modeling of values that will last a lifetime. They are committed to the academic development of their students in an environment of educational excellence to prepare them for the challenges of a global society.
