Dear Parents,

Thank you to everyone who made the Week of the Arts such a success, especially our event coordinator, Yves Clark. We pushed it back this year to allow a little more freedom to get back to our old routines and we were overwhelmingly effective. Most importantly, the students loved it! There was joyful chaos every afternoon and enthusiastic participation in our morning assemblies. The workshop organizers were organized and flexible, the staff were all willing to do whatever task was assigned, and the backbone of the event, the parent volunteers, were back in full force. Thank you to everyone for providing this opportunity for our children.

The bad news is that we may have a little rain for our Bulldog 5K. The good news is that we run it on the streets so mud will not be an issue AND the rain will keep you cool as you sprint/run/jog/walk through the neighborhood. Look for me around Jim Johnson/Shepherd Park/Cummings Field…I’ll be cheering you on and wishing I could be participating. 

Please be sure to get ready for our next big event…the Mission Fair…next Friday, May 13. While we do everything we can to make this a fun day for the students…all of our proceeds go to support the Holy Cross Sisters Moreau School in Uganda. Volunteer sign up sheets and order forms for the day have been sent home. Please remember that the only way to attend the Mission Fair is with a wristband. And, the only way to get a wristband is through the order form. No orders will be processed at school on Friday. We want EVERYONE to attend. If the cost of the wrist band presents a challenge, please email me (Mr. Kelly) directly and we will work something out. 

Faithfully,
Chris Kelly
