LETTER 
FROM  PRINCIPAL
SABLESKI
Good morning,

The daily work of school, though critically important, can cause us to forget that we are even in the season of Lent.  Keeping up with class work, science fairs, sports, the musical and any number of endeavors can pull our focus away from the Lord.  During this coming week, I challenge us all to turn our attention to matters of faith and prepare our hearts for the resurrection of our Lord!

As we enter this most holy of weeks, we should remember how much the Lord loves us.  Whatever we do, no matter how busy or "distracted" we might be, we should let the power of Christ's sacrifice be our guide.  This is a "holy" week, because the events of this week help us bring all of the elements of our lives into His redeeming, liberating death and resurrection.  We must take time to reflect and finish the work we've been doing throughout Lent so that we can fully experience the joy of Easter that awaits!

God Bless, and remember, it's a great day to be a Patriot!

Matt

P.S.  We will not send Principal's Notes out next week, so whether you are staying home or travelling far, let me take this opportunity to wish all of you a safe, relaxing and fun-filled Easter Break!
