Dear Parents,
It is important for all students to arrive at school on time. Late arrivals do adversely affect a student's learning and also do disrupt the teacher and fellow classmates.
As per the student handbook, "a pattern of late arrival is detrimental to a student’s academic progress and understanding of the importance of punctuality. Additionally, the late arrival of a student on a regular basis is also disruptive to the classroom environment and the learning that is taking place. "
As trimester 2 progresses and trimester 3 approaches, thank you for ensuring that your child arrives at school on time. Attention to detail sets the stage for success!

You are amazing! Thank you for another successful food collection service project for the Saint Lucy Project! You helped collect 788 lbs. of canned tomatoes! Special shout out to our 8th graders (Bailey C., Aubrianna C., Leah F., Tony S., Landon L., Hayden K.) who help organize, pack, and load the truck! |

Every Friday in Lent at 7:00 pm here at St. Joseph Catholic Church, our faith community gathers together in devotion to The Way of the Cross, also known as the Stations of the Cross. Each week a different Parish Ministry will lead us in prayer. We will meditate on Christ’s sacrifice for us. The Stations of the Cross will begin on Friday, March 11th. The Stations of the Cross are prayed in Spanish at 8:00 pm.

The 2022 Bishop’s Lenten Appeal (BLA) is now underway!
This 2-minute video gives a snapshot of the many programs and ministries funded by the BLA, which help parishes and parishioners throughout the Diocese of Arlington. Please prayerfully consider supporting the BLA,
as we continue
the Mission of Jesus Christ!
Your gift before Ash Wednesday will provide reassurance as we look ahead with hope to support additional outreach and BLA ministries.

The Diocese of Arlington has received a challenge gift which will match new or increased donations. So, every dollar donated above your last BLA gift amount will be matched up to $500,000. And if you are donating for the first time to the BLA, your entire
donation will be matched!
Thank you and God bless you!
