Dear Friends,
 
Please enjoy this special issue of our newsletter, capturing the very many special moments of  Catholic Schools Week ! Last week contained many wonderful events, including Spelling Bees, a Curriculum Fair and Mass with Bishop Rojas! There were so many activities...it actually lasted a bit longer than a week for us. But, when you are celebrating our children and our faith, does anyone really mind?  J

Sincerely,
Ms. Cavallone
Principal
