From the Principal:

It seems like we just got back from mid winter break and Easter break is already right around the corner. Only three weeks until we leave to celebrate the Triduum and the Resurrection. Until then, join us in all the fun events we have planned.

Please join PTO for dinner and discussion. They are hosting dinner for our parents on March 12 and want to help connect you to the school through volunteer opportunities and thought sharing. Come join the fun and add your two cents into the pot!

We also have a couple fun events for our students. We have our Middle School showcase after school today, our Saint Patrick's Day assembly next Thursday, and movie night next Friday! Hope to see all the kids and families at these fun events.

Lastly, scroll down and click through to the DREAM Auction website to get your tickets at a discount. Remember the EARLYBIRD code can only be used through March 15.

Mrs. Morga, O.P.
