Dear families,
Our hearts are heavy as we stand in solidarity with the families of the fallen US soldiers and all of those who have been impacted by the long war in Afghanistan.
Much of education today prepares students to function in an individualistic society. Holy Family Catholic School serves as an alternative model based on a genuine community of faith. Educators, administrators, parents and pastors guide the school to make choices that promote “overcoming individualistic self-promotion, solidarity instead of competition, assisting the weak instead of marginalization, responsible participation instead of indifference." Catholic schools strive to create a community school climate that reproduces, as far as possible, the warm and intimate atmosphere of family life.
Character is about what kind of person you are. I recently read the simple definition of character described as what kind of mental and moral qualities a person has. Look for opportunities to reinforce the character building ideas of empathy, courage, gratitude, fortitude and positive attitude.
ITBS testing continues this week, please have your student(s) get plenty of rest and eat a healthy breakfast.
When emailing a staff member or teacher from our website, please make sure you check the "I AM NOT A ROBOT box" before submitting your email.
God bless,
Mr. Aubert
