Dear Families,

This week, the classrooms at St. Mary's were full of energy and academics! The Christmas excitement carried through the building, however, the learning did not stop! From multiplication tables to algebraic tests, students gave their all as we wrapped up 2022.

We celebrated as a community as we watched the students perform their Jesse Tree Acts, as well as with PreK's Family Christmas Party, and most importantly our Christmas Pageant/Concert earlier this week. It was delightful to see many family members via Zoom or in person as we celebrated the children's musical talents.

I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year! We cannot wait to kick off the 2023 School Year. God bless you.

The early re-enrollment period for the 2023-2024 academic year will start on January 9th and will end on January 20th. St. Mary's families will receive an email from the FACTS/SIS Portal with instructions on how to re-enroll. All families that re-enroll between January 9 and January 20 will be eligible to be entered into a drawing to receive a $500 credit towards their 2023-2024 tuition. On January 23, three families will be randomly selected to receive the tuition credit. Please be on the lookout for that email!

A huge congratulations to Ms. Annie Casey on your retirement! Thank you for the many years of care you have given to St. Mary's students, families, faculty, and staff.
