Schedule Change

Due to the jump in student enrollment over this past year, we will be adjusting our moving up ceremony & graduation ceremony for the school.  With this change, all spectators will be more comfortable and have a better view of the events.  Please note the following changes:

Preschool Moving up Ceremony & Reception- Ms. Mary/Ms. Amy's class and Ms. Jannelle/Ms. Ashley's class- May 25th @ 1:30 PM in the gymnasium.  This will be the last day for preschool students!  

Pre-K Graduation- Mrs. L/Mrs. A, Ms. Erin/Ms. Mikala, Mrs. DeGasto/Ms. Danielle & Ms. Jeanette's classes- May 29th @ 10 AM in the Church.  Reception to follow in the gym.  All students dismiss following the ceremony from their classrooms.
We are so pleased to announce that Mrs. Jill Ledergerber (Mrs. L) has been nominated for the Diocese of Toledo Golden Apple Award!  The Golden Apple Award was established to honor outstanding individuals who devote their lives to teaching in Catholic Schools.  The award extends to the entire Toledo Diocese and includes nominees from Preschool through high school.  Unfortunately, Mrs. L was not selected as one of the winners this year but we are so proud of her nomination and her dedication!  Mrs. L works tirelessly to serve students, families and this program.  Thank you Mrs. L for all that you do!!!  You will always be a winner in our eyes!


EL CORAZON DE MEXICO students will be here performing folkloric dancing on May 4th @ 8:30 AM  Feel free to stay and watch the performance in the gym!


Please remember that summer care enrollment is due in a month.  If you intend on enrolling your child, please submit enrollment as soon as you can so we can begin planning for the summer curriculum!

Great News!!!

Our Fall fundraising that we had this past year was through a company called Great American Opportunities.  Our Sales Associate, Ms. Diane Silver asked us what are goals are for fundraising at this moment.  Our current goals include improving PE equipment and recess gear.  Ms. Silver returned the next day and presented to us a gift card for $1000 to a Physical Education equipment company.  Ms. Silver is a former PE teacher from Most Blessed Sacrament so she really knew the importance of having updated items for children to utilize.  Thank you Ms. Silver!  We will put that donation to great use! 


Does your child utilize the Extended Day program?  Please note that accounts MUST BE BROUGHT CURRENT by 4/13/18 in order for your child to continue utilizing the service.
