Dear Parents,
It is hard to believe how quickly the school year has passed. As we come to the end of the year, I would like to thank you for your trust, faith, and commitment to the mission of Corpus Christi Catholic School. We have had an amazing school year, and I know that is due to the wonderful parents we have who unite with us as partners in education.

Our Bible verse focus for the month of May is Proverbs 3:6
“In all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.”
Our prayer focus is the Hail Mary
:
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
