From the Principal's Desk...
Dear Parents,

First, allow me to wish all of you a safe and enjoyable winter break. I know that it is much needed and I hope the children can wind down and enjoy their vacation.

Over the break, we will be sanitizing surfaces in the school including the students' desks. We will also be converting our boiler from oil to gas heat.

Congratulations to our Varsity Boys Basketball team for their first place finish in the Route 395 Conference. We wish all of our teams the best of luck in their upcoming competitions.

Mark your calendars for our Mardi Gras Casino Night coming up on March 2nd. It's going to be a fun time, so please purchase your tickets ASAP. Just added: attendees will have the opportunity to win a pair of Celtics tickets valued at $525 each. See below for more details. We hope all of our parents will come out to support the school.

REMINDER: Tomorrow, February 15, is an early dismissal at 11:00AM. There will be no buses available for dismissal.

Finally, we are sad that the time with our visitors from China is coming to an end. Our students enjoyed having this opportunity to share their classes and experiences with our guests. I know that the Chinese parents and students appreciated their short stay and thought it was an incredible educational and cultural experience. They have expressed their sincere gratitude to the St. Joseph School community.

Sincerely, 

Principal
