Weekly Mindfulness Session
3/30 - 4/3
This week's mindfulness session brought to us by Ms. Colleen McCorry:
we focus on how to deal with some of the strong emotions we may be experiencing.
A Message from the Counseling Office:
We realize your daughters and your entire family are experiencing a major disruption in your lives. From helping children at home with distance learning, to changes in work schedules and more, it’s a lot to manage. Increased anxiety due to this “new normal” is natural. Please know that we are available to support you and your daughters through this time. We will be available to your daughters by appointment through Google Meet. An appointment link has been shared with your daughter.
Juniors
We understand that many of you have had to postpone visiting college campuses and attending college fairs. This is disappointing, but it does not mean that you have to postpone your college research. The counseling department has compiled a list of resources and helpful things that you can do now to continue the college research and planning process.

Virtual Prayer Day Relay
Thursday, April 9th
Now more than ever, our community is in need of prayers. We are trying something different and are offering our prayer day relay from the safety of your home. The date is Holy Thursday, April 9th from 8am-3pm. We are looking for parents, alumnae, students and UA staff to commit to thirty minutes of prayer where they will pray for each member of our community by name and specifically for the intentions of our community.
Sign up here
to take a shift. If it is full, you are welcome to sign up next to the name of someone else. We certainly will not turn away "pray-ers"! Once the schedule is finalized I will send out the link which will contact a google sheet and each tab will contain a class roster and staff roster. The first tab will be the list of prayer intentions. If you have prayer intentions you would like us to pray for please
fill out this form
and we will include them in our prayer day relay.
Google Classroom
Parents please encourage your daughter to sign into her grade level campus ministry google classroom to receive important updates as well as resources for faith formation.
