Dear Saint Katharine’s Families,

Can you believe it? We are in the final stretch of summer. As we countdown to the first day of school, I have a few reminders and updates to share:

• Make it count! Whether you are squeezing in one more adventure, savoring lazy mornings, or enjoying the sunshine, I hope this week is filled with joy!
• We are ready to roll! Your teachers are zhuzhing their classrooms and buzzing with energy as they work to set the stage for a successful year. I'm excited to announce that we have some fabulous new members joining our team! It's my honor to introduce them here.
• I can't wait to meet you! Thanks to all of you who have already introduced yourselves and made me feel so welcome! If you can make it, please join me for "Popsicles with the Principal" on 8/28 for a sweet start to the school year. More details about this and other announcements below!

Enjoy the week!
