Dear Parents,
It was an eventful day at St. Veronica! We successfully completed our evacuation drill! I cannot say enough wonderful things about our students. The demeanor of our entire school showed that everyone was taking the drill seriously. Our older students really stepped up as the student leaders of the school to watch out for, and protect, our younger students. I know all the teachers and staff were extremely proud of them throughout the drill. I also think the emergency personnel that was in attendance were pleasantly surprised by our students.
We will continue to meet with our police and fire representatives to increase the safety of all drills throughout the year.

The past few years, we have been fortunate enough to have the Clermont County Prosecutor's Office present an informational session about social media. Our Junior High students were presented with this information during the day while parents attended at night. Many parents found this session very informative and helpful.
We are delighted to announce that the Clermont County Prosecutor's Office has offered to present again! I strongly encourage all parents to attend whether your child has a social media account or not. Our Social Media Information Night will be Thursday, November 7, at 6:30 in the cafeteria. During this presentation parents will learn how social media can affect your child. Parents will learn what kids do on social media and how that can affect them as adults. There will also be strategies presented to help you help your child make the right choices.
We highly encourage that all parents attend the presentation and talk about it as a family. After all, parents are the first teachers in our child's lives.

CONTINUING THIS SUNDAY, OCT. 20
Mass Plus -A New Parish Learning Opportunity
The most important thing we do as a parish, Fr. Del always reminds us, is Sunday Mass. You know how Mass goes, what to do or say. But what is happening on a deeper level? How can you more deeply pray the Mass, and not just attend it?
A monthly event called Mass Plus - an addition to 9:30 or 11:30 Mass. Stay after 9:30 or come early for 11:30, or come back if you've been to 4:00 or 8:00! Adults and kids 4th grade & up start together, then adults stay with Emily Besl and children go with Bill Frantz to explore the meaning of the Mass and why we do the things we do.
Each month, we'll look at different parts of the Mass.
Come to all or come when you can.
· for adults and older children (4th grade & up)
· once a month
· between 9:30 & 11:30 Masses on Sundays
· in the school cafeteria 10:35 to 11:20 a.m.
· short, informal, 45 minutes
October 20 - The Introductory Rites
REMAINING DATES: Oct 20, Nov 17, Dec 15,
Jan 12, Feb 9, Mar 8, Apr 19, May 17, June 14
Mass Plus - Come to Mass, stay for more!

Our Youth Ministry program continues at both St. John Fisher and St. Veronica, and Fr. Alex is excited to help our youth grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Our Youth Meetings are guided by three goals:
1. Social - Living our Faith
2. Instructional - Teaching our Faith
3. Serving Those in Need - Proclaiming our Faith
Middle school youth (grades 6-8) meet every second Sunday of the month, and high school youth (grades 9- 12) meet every fourth Sunday of the month. Both groups meet from 6:30 - 8:00 pm, although the time of each event is subject to change on occasion.
