Each morning when I drive to school I reflect on the many blessings in my life. Not only do I have a wonderful husband, and three healthy, happy children, I am also blessed with a wonderful community of faith-filled families, who greet me each day with kindness and a smile. Opening car doors is the best way to start my day, because each day I am reminded of just how lucky I am to be at St. Roch Catholic School.
St. Roch Catholic School is truly a blessing. We are a community who works together to shape and form the youth God has entrusted to us. Each morning I pray that I will lead with a servant’s heart and that I will always be thankful for all the blessings in my life. All of you are a blessing. Thank you for choosing St. Roch and for allowing our staff to love, teach and nurture your children.
This community is indeed a blessing and I am lucky to come to a job where I never dread a Monday!
As a reminder, there is no school on Friday, August 31st and Monday, September 3rd.
Have a great weekend!

Book Fair is approaching quickly and there are a couple of changes I would like to share. Grandparents’ Day will be the first day of Book Fair rather than the last and there will be gift certificates available for purchase on Grandparents’ Day. The students will be able to use the gift certificates on the following week at Book Fair. Also, there will be a raffle to support our classroom libraries . Raffle tickets are $1 and will be sold all week. The Grand Prize winner will be announced on Friday September 14th and receive a $50.00 shopping spree for the book fair . All other winners, will receive a poster from the Book Fair. Lastly, if you are interested in helping with the Book Fair here is the link to sign up.

Did you know that a portion of your regular grocery purchase can come back to St. Roch? If you already have a Kroger Plus card, you are just a few steps away from allowing Kroger to give back to St. Roch from all of your purchases at the Kroger family of stores!
