Dear Saint Paul School Community,

Catholic Schools Week was a genuine celebration of the faith of our school!  

My favorite part was on Thursday when we celebrated our students with the December and January Virtue Awards.  It was especially nice to have so many of our parents with us in person and many more via ZOOM!

So many faculty, staff and parents supported this week …

Fr. Nestor, Fr Matt Porter and Linda Resca for livestreaming Sunday’s 10 am Liturgy
Mrs. Knobloch for the amazing pizza bar
Elizabeth Murphy for organizing the D and N Fundraiser 
Mrs. Deitsch, Senora Monnich and Ms. Barnes for the Geography Bee
PTO for the luncheon on Wednesday from Lavishly Dunn
Ms. Rohnstock and Coaches for the basketball rally
Mrs. Schnorr and Mrs. Breen for organizing the Open House and all our teachers and staff for your flexibility and support. 
Janelle Hussey, Colleen Manning, Maura Naughton, Karen Oravitzand Ann Marie Manning for being ambassadors of our school at the Open House 
Barbara Horan for organizing Wahlburgers 
ALL of the SPS parents for donations
Mrs. Collmer and Mrs. Chevalier for collecting and sorting the donations 
Mr. and Mrs. Flynn for shopping for extra bread
Mrs. Gilchrist, Mrs. Lloyd, Mrs. Naughton, Mrs. Hussey, Mrs. Dortch-Morrison and Mrs. Lynch (we love having alumni parents back) for the Fr. Bill’s assembly of lunches
Mrs. Slankas, Mrs. Richards, Mr. Loughnane and Mr. Hussey for the deliveries to Fr. Bill’s yesterday and today
Mrs. Melcher for the Talent Show
Mrs. Naughton, Mrs. Hussey, Mrs. Dortch-Morrison, and "the BINGO man" for tonight’s BINGO 

It is with sad news I announce music teacher Ms. Alana Sennett will be leaving us on February 14.  She has accepted a position in the Brockton Public Schools. I have been in touch with Young World and they have begun the search for her replacement … big shoes to fill!
