Our week back from break was very productive and exciting.

On behalf of the teachers, we want to express how proud we are of the 3rd - 8th grade students who took the ELA state test. They were very attentive and we know they tried their best! We will receive the scores in the fall on how they did and provide our teachers with great feedback to help in improving instruction.

Our week concluded with an Easter Mass. Our students learned that Easter is more than the Easter bunny, but about Jesus had to rise from death to show us salvation. Fr. Carlos also explain that the true symbol of Easter is the Pascal candle. Students were shown the Pascal candle and learned about the different symbols on it.

Then, we had our annual egg hunt sponsored by our student council. It was fun for all as each class looked for the special golden egg.

Coming up...

Monday is spirit wear day! Also it is an early dismissal day for the students who ride the Geneva bus at 1:15 pm.

Wednesday, our younger students will enjoy a performance by the FLCC of Rainbow Fish.

Friday, we will release Quarter 3 report cards.

Tomorrow (Saturday) is a busy day for PTO as they host the Mom to Mom Sale. Stop by and do a little shopping for your kids or grandkids. Our 6th graders will be selling snacks to support their class trip. The afternoon wraps up with Boys' Bowling.

PTO is always looking for additional members and helpers.

Here's what is coming up next for PTO!

April 20th is the deadline to apply for financial aid!

Applications must have 2023 tax forms uploaded. Please verify your financial aid application is complete.

Must have enrollment completed before applying for financial aid.

Local district transportation department will be calling to verify enrollments for next year. If you have not reached out to them regarding busing, please do so as soon as possible.

Summer uniform does not begin until May 1st. Thank you for your help in ensuring our students are following the dress code.

We are so lucky to have been given 15 scholarships for students to attend our STEM Camp July 22-26.

Each scholarship is $100 off the current cost.

Camp Invention is for students entering grades 1-6 in the fall of 2024.

The first 15 people to contact our camp director, Melissa Parmele (melissa.parmele@dor.org), will be given first opportunity.

We need some extra choir members for our upcoming school Masses.

3rd - 8th graders welcomed!

Choir members sing at each school Mass.

Contact Miss Chris at chris.sauter-milligan@dor.org if your child is interested.

Come see Mrs. Iannopollo, Mrs. Tulloch, and Ms. Pohorence at the Geneva Book Fest!

It's free and there are cool activities and books to check out.

We are seeking a group of parents and their families to help plan what we will do for the Waterloo and Geneva Memorial Day parades. We have one family already, but we need a couple more.

If you love to decorate, celebrate our school, and have some good old-fashion fun, this is a role for you!

Planning consists of deciding if we want to make a float to what do we hand out to the many people attending. The goal is to advertise our school and show off our school spirit!

If interested, please contact Paula Caito-Capozzi.
