Hello MTC Families and Friends,

I hope you are having a relaxing Spring Break. We are continuing to work hard and adjust how we are providing instruction in this online environment. Weekly mass is still available for our students through the livestreaming link each Tuesday Morning at 9:00. We will be adding a tab to our Virtual Learning section of our website to include our morning activities. If your child would like to lead us in a prayer or the Pledge, please send your video to Mrs. DeMicheli so we can share it on our Website.

We are also working on providing a safe environment for our children while they are working online. Most of our students will be participating in Zoom meetings of some size. All of our meetings will be password protected. We will send out an email to you that includes the password for all Zoom meetings with students. Look for the email on Sunday night.

I love the creativity that comes out of learning new things. Enjoy the links below that have come from our various parishes. Please stay safe and I hope to see you soon.

Respectfully,

Teresa H. Caraker
Principal
Lenten Prayer
 
Almighty and Everlasting God,
You have given the human race
Jesus Christ our Savior as a model of humility.
He fulfilled Your Will by becoming Man
And giving His life on the Cross.
Help us to bear witness to You
By following His example of suffering
And make us worthy to share in His Resurrection.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son.
Amen

We are looking for photos of children learning in all subject areas including physical education, art, STREAM, reading and world language. Videos of singing and praying would be awesome too!! In addition, we are looking for children to lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance, Our Father, Hail Mary or a grace prayer for meals. Please send photos and videos to enrollment@mtctampa.org.

Resources from our Parishes

As we face challenges and concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are leaning more on our faith and trusting in the Lord Jesus to be our protection and guide. While we are separated by quarantines, self-isolation and social distancing, Pope Francis reminds us that, united in Christ, we are never alone. Our parishes would like to provide you with the following information to help you during this time.

The internet has drastically changed the way children interact with the world. The use of cell phones among tweens and teenagers has jumped considerably. Technology is not without risks and parents are encouraged to monitor their child’s devices.
