From the Principal's Desk

Dear Parents,

Thank you for all your support! We had a great week at school in spite of all of the rain.

It is hard to believe that Lent starts next Wednesday. Parents are invited to join us at our Ash Wednesday Mass.

We are excited about Field Day next week*. Coach Kimbro and the athletic department have been working hard to get ready. Parents are invited to have Brown Bag lunch with their students at their regular lunch time on Field Day. (Friendly reminder that this is the first Friday in Lent.)

We are watching the weather forecast closely for next week. We will decide on Monday if we need to move Field Day to Thursday or after Spring Break. Brown Bag Lunch will take place on Field Day. Dismissal times will not change next week even if we move Field Day.

I look forward to seeing you at the Parent Party tonight. Special thanks to the Maceys for chairing the party and to Lori Huffman and Christina Knust for all their hard work on the Big Board.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Blessings,

Dr. Kathleen Cox
