Ms. Cordeiro taught her class on Thursday wearing a birthday crown for preschooler, Ivy Desoches! Later in the day, Ivy wore the exact same crown during a Zoom call with her classmates!

The "Virtual Voci "family!
With another week of virtual learning behind us, we are keenly aware of the challenges that naturally exist, and are addressing them daily. Thank you to all those parents who took the time to complete this brief survey , which will help us to evaluate our current systems and improve them as necessary. We realize that a great amount of patience, perseverance and prayers will be required as we move through the weeks to come. We continue to promote open communication as an avenue for addressing issues as they arise. Efforts will continue to be made to connect our faculty and students, as we are all missing each other very much! I trust that your families are finding the time to make prayer a priority, and invite you to take advantage of the offerings that are being put forth by Fr. Williams and our parish family!
God bless, stay safe and have a great weekend!

By now you should have received your child(ren)'s Trimester 2 report cards. If for some reason you did not (and have checked your spam) please let the office know. In addition, should you have any questions or concerns pertaining to your child's report card, please contact your child's teacher directly. Thank you!
I imagine that by now you have all received the email from Superintendent Steve Perla regarding our extended school closing until May 4th. While we are greatly saddened by this news, we understand the importance of prioritizing community health and safety, and will continue to comply with Governor Baker's decisions pertaining to school closings.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION!

Please  register your child(ren) for the 2020-2021 school  year! The re registration process is rather simple, as it simply requires updating any new information if necessary within your FACTS Family Portal. Thank you for helping us to get a sense for our numbers for next year, as new families inquire about enrollment and potential openings!

A special opportunity to be spiritually connected.... First Friday Mass this week !

Our first virtual school Mass will be held on Friday, April 3rd!
The Mass will be posted on both the parish Facebook page and the parish website . While the Mass will not be live streamed, the taping will be posted by 9am.
Father will be gearing his homily toward the children this day!

Please plan on attending Mass at 9am on Friday the 3rd as a family and we will pray together as a school community.

It is certainly difficult to be apart on Lenten journey this year and we are grateful to have the few opportunities to pray together with our school and parish communities. Starting this weekend, at some of the virtual Masses you will attend, you will notice that statues and crucifixes will be covered in purple veils.
This tradition helps us to more intently focus on Christ's passion and indicates that our Lenten journey is coming to an end.

Thank you for your dedication and service! Please be assured of our continued prayers for all of our school community health care workers, doctors, nurses, emergency personnel and lab technicians. God bless you all, be safe and stay well!
We realize that the days can be quite long with the children at home. The limitations placed on our lives during this time are challenging to say the very least. Some days if we don't allow ourselves to laugh, we are absolutely going to cry!
