Dear Parents,

As we are coming to the close of Catholic Schools Week, it is evident that every day in our school we celebrate our Faith, Knowledge, and Service to others. As part of our effort to educate the whole child, we make every effort to instill in our students a lifelong appreciation of learning. We teach them their faith and commitment to serving others. 

It is with the partnership of our parents that we prepare our students to become good citizens and active members of their parish and community. I thank you for choosing Catholic Education for your children and for choosing St. Catherine of Siena School. It is a truly a blessing to us to have your children in our lives.  


Quote from Pope Francis:

"The Kingdom of God is already in our midst like a hidden seed. Anyone with pure eyes can see it blossom."



Faithfully yours,

Miss Giaquinto

A huge thank you to Kathleen Donahue our Marketing and Advancement  Director for organizing  this event and to the following parents: Annette DeMoura, Amy Mignone, 
Lyndsey Arone, Jena Corsello, Laurie Chute, Angela Basta, and MaryEllen Midgley.

A special thank you to the Dineen family and the Home & School Association for providing the luncheon for the teachers today. 

I also want to thank the parent volunteers that sat with the children so the teachers could enjoy a wonderful lunch hour!!  We are very grateful for all of your time and willingness to help out!
