Dear Parents,
We are planning to kick off our Catholic Schools Week Celebration this coming Sunday during the Parish 11:00 Mass. We want to celebrate the partnership we have with our parish and to let parish members know we are thankful for their support. We also want to recognize the role you have as parents in being the primary religious educators of your children. If you are attending the 11:00 Mass this Sunday, please have your child wear their school uniform.

Our Bible Verse for January is Philippians 4:13
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Our prayer focus is the “Anima Christi”
|
|
Our students will not be participating in our annual March for Life this year. However, during Religion this week, each class will focus on Pro-Life in a grade-appropriate manner and as the virtual March for Life takes place on Friday, our students will join in spirit. Some classes will be participating in their own march during their Religion class time. |
