I hope you were able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weekend. I would like to thank all the teachers, parents, and students who helped at the Kite Festival. It was a great community service and it always helps to get our name out in the community. Also, thank you to our “Saints in Action” for the wonderful volunteer appreciation event. It was an enjoyable evening that the volunteers appreciated. The next two weeks we will be doing MAP testing. Please make sure your children are rested and have a good breakfast. Most importantly, please make sure they come to school on time. Thanks to our parents, teachers, students, and parishioners we have a great school – please spread the word!!!!!
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
