From the Office of the Principal

Hello Loyola Families!

From preschool bike parades to the last Mass at Fitz to final exams for our high school students...It was a very busy week for us all!

Thank you teachers, parents and students for a wonderful year. It was a privilege to spend it with you and I look forward to our time on one campus together!

Parents, please watch your email over the next few weeks as we continue to keep you updated on our move to one campus and send out additional information that we want to relay to you.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns please reach out to us!

Blessings on your summer! Enjoy your time with your children, families and friends!

5-8 GRADE POPS CONCERT


FCA- A MESSAGE FROM MR. BIEHN AND MRS. REINBOLD:
Last week we had 30 great 7th and 8th graders who gathered to talk and pray about all of the happenings here at school and in our lives outside of school. We sure had great stories and great fun.

As leaders we would like to thank all of our students for their participation at our FCA Huddles. There have been lots of great memories from these times. We heard about athletic events, speech meets, plays, and activities of all sorts plus family happenings and events outside of school. I encourage all our students to keep pushing for FCA. It will definitely make a huge difference in your lives. All very, very cool.

God Bless and thank you all!!
Mrs. Reinbold and Mr. Biehn
