As we begin our journey through the Lenten season, I am reminded of the profound opportunity we have to walk alongside Jesus as we prepare for Holy Week. Lent is a time of reflection, prayer, and renewal, as we seek to deepen our relationship with Jesus and grow in our understanding of His infinite love and mercy. I encourage each of you to embrace this sacred season with open hearts and minds, allowing the spirit of Lent to guide us on our path of faith. Take time this week to talk to your child about Lent - what is s/he praying for this Lent? what is on your heart? What a great opportunity Lent offers us to pray together. Want a great idea? Challenge yourself to Mass each of the six Sundays of Lent this year! What a great way to walk with Our Lord this Lent and pray together as a family. Mass at St. Theresa are at 5pm on Saturday, 7:00, 8:30, 10:00, and 11:30am on Sunday.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to all of our dedicated teachers and staff for their ongoing commitment to our students' academic and personal growth. This week, we have the privilege of coming together for parent-teacher conferences. These conferences provide a valuable opportunity for us to collaborate, celebrate progress, and address any questions or concerns you may have. Your active participation in your child's education is crucial to their success, and I encourage you to take advantage of this time to engage with your child's teacher and support their learning journey. If you didn't get a chance to see your child's teachers on Monday or today, never fear! Please just email the teacher you want to see and let them know a good time for you to connect. Our teachers are always available to meet with you and together with you, help your child learn and grow!
Congratulations again to our 7th-grade boys basketball team that has achieved great success on the court this season! Their dedication, teamwork, and sportsmanship have been truly inspiring to witness. Please join me in congratulating our talented athletes and their coaches on a job well done. Your hard work and determination are a testament to the spirit of St. Theresa School and we are incredibly proud of your accomplishments.
I want to extend a special thank you to our Parents Association for the incredible fun and enriching experiences they bring to our children throughout the year. Your creativity, enthusiasm, and hard work are truly appreciated! We loved the BMX presentation and the important message of caring for others it brought and Valentine's Day was an ice cream filled afternoon of fun! We are excited to share that there are some fantastic projects in development for the upcoming spring season! To learn more about these exciting initiatives, we invite you to join us at our next Parents Association meeting. It's a fantastic opportunity to connect with other parents, stay informed about school happenings, and contribute your ideas and talents to our vibrant community. Our next meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 5 at 7:00 pm in the Lower Dolan. If you're unable to attend but would like more information, please don't hesitate to reach out via email at stspa@sttheresaschool.com. We would love to hear from you and ensure that you're kept in the loop about all the exciting developments at St. Theresa.
As we begin our journey through Lent, let us remain steadfast in our commitment to fostering a community of faith, learning, and excellence. May the grace of God guide us in all that we do, and may we continue to support and uplift one another as we journey together as the St. Theresa School family. Enjoy the long weekend as we honor our nation's presidents on Monday.
