From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal

Dear Parents,

I begin with our weekly COVID update. I am happy to report that we presently have 0 active cases in our school and 0 students in quarantine. Now that our younger students are able to be vaccinated, if you choose to have your child vaccinated, please send in a copy of their proof of vaccination for our files. Once a student is fully vaccinated, they will no longer need to quarantine if exposed (provided they are not exhibiting any COVID symptoms). This is in no way encouraging nor discouraging you from getting your child vaccinated. This is entirely a family choice.

This week we welcome our 4K students to Mass. We will continue to social distance while we are in church. Mrs. Jaeger is excited to report that the 4K friends are ready to join us! Soon 3k will join us also!

Congratulations to our 8th grade Volleyball teams as their final season comes to an end. Both the girls and the boys teams had a GREAT season. I am so proud of their efforts and AMAZING sportsmanship. They truly played as a team supporting one another throughout the season. Our 8th grade boys took 2nd place in the Seton Championship Tournament. Way to go boys!
Blessings,

Mrs. Ellen Knippel
