Dear Parents and Students,
Quote of the Week:
"Our efforts must aim at restoring hope, righting wrongs, maintaining commitments and thus promoting the well-being of individuals and of peoples.... We must move forward together, as one, in a renewed spirit of fraternity and solidarity, cooperating generously for the common good."
--Pope Francis in His Address to Congress
Thanks for all the flexibility and great spirit during this exciting week of the Poe's visit. We couldn't ask for better inspiration!
My best,
Jackie Brilliant
Principal
