Dear Families,
I hope this letter finds you all well and enjoying your week. I hope to see all of you tonight at our
General Parent Guild Meeting from 6:30-8PM in the school gym. Our Learning Specialist, Mrs. Riordan, will be presenting on
Executive Functioning Skills and How to Help Your Child to Be Successful. We will also be presenting on our budget, this summer's seismic project, and our upcoming fundraisers. Free Child Care will be available in Extended Care.
Tomorrow is a
$3 Fee Dress and Popcorn sale. All proceeds benefit our Seismic Project. Thank you for your ongoing support of our fundraising efforts.
Summer School information was sent home today. We look forward to offering summer school in our building again, and we hope your children will join us for our four week program.
We are excited for our upcoming
Catholic Schools Week. All students are expected to be at our
9:30AM Mass on Sunday, January 27th. We hope you all will join us at the school for our
Open House and Science Fair following mass from 10:30AM-12PM.
Thank you so much for all of the support you give to Holy Name. Words honestly can't express how blessed we are to work with you and your children.
Enjoy your long weekend!
Thanks,
Natalie

THIS WEEK'S WORDS FROM FATHER ARNOLD
Whatever the weather will be today, let your heart sing.
Let your spirit soar.
For there is so much in life to be grateful for --
There's the warmth of sunshine;
The coolness of the rain,
The quiet of evening when day is done;
and
dearest of all
the love of family & friends.
Blessings in the rain,
Fr. Arnold
