Principal's Letter
Dear All Saints Families,
Happy New Year and welcome back to the second half of the school year. It is unbelievable we are now in the second semester and it is 2018. The beginning of the second semester is usually a tough one for our students to get back into good study habits after the holidays. Please encourage your children to work hard, sleep well, and develop healthy eating habits. We have so many great things scheduled for the month of January. Open House, MAP's testing, sports field fundraising Home and School Information Night, and Catholic Schools Week. Please check our school calendar for upcoming events and meetings.
Our annual
Open House is scheduled for Friday, January 19th. Please see our website for further details. If you have family, friends, or neighbors who are interested in looking into All Saints, please encourage them to attend this wonderful time to visit the school. We begin the day with a brief overview of our school and then tours given by teachers, assistants, parents, and students. Families get a true sense of our school and what we can offer to our community.
As I mentioned before Catholic Schools Week will begin on Sunday, January 28, 2018. The week will begin with participation of our families at all of our parish Masses. Students may have the opportunity to read, usher, sing, and welcome our parish members during the Sunday masses. Parish Liaisons will be reaching out to our families. If you are interested in helping out, and do not get a call from your liaison, please contact Mrs. Darlene Capparelli in the office and she will connect you with the liaison. We ask all our families who attend mass on this day, to encourage the children to wear their school uniform. This is a wonderful way to identify the All Saints students. The rest of the week's details will soon be listed on our school calendar.
I wish to inform you that Mrs. Nicole Aitken will be picking up the duties as the middle Science teacher. We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Jenny Vanderwalker will be assisting in the classrooms and lab. Further, she will be teaching electives and building our Science school-wide projects (i.e. outside garden and Green School of Excellence initiative) throughout the school. These projects will deepen our school's desire for Science knowledge through hands-on activities at all grade levels. We are also pleased to announce that Mr. Glen Aitken will be the permanent substitute in the computer lab. Mr. Aitken has taught at John Carroll High School and been the Director of Religious Education where he taught all grade levels. His computer knowledge is plentiful and he will be completing the curriculum and directives of the computer classes established by Mrs. Nicole Aitken at the beginning of the school year.
Looking forward to an amazing 2018!
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Jill Broz
