Our Mission is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ,

to provide a high-quality education,

and to guide children in living the Catholic faith

Look with Love

Look with love on grandparents the world over.
Protect them!
They are a source of enrichment
for families and for all of society.
Support them!
As they grow older,
may they continue to be for their families
strong pillars of Gospel faith,
guardians of noble domestic ideals,
living treasuries of sound religious traditions.

Make them teachers of wisdom and courage,
that they may pass on to future generations the fruits
of their mature human and spiritual experience.

Help families and society
to value the presence and roles of grandparents.

May they never be ignored or excluded,
but always encounter respect and love.
Help them to live serenely and to feel welcomed
in all the years of life which you give them.
Keep them constantly in your care,
accompany them on their earthly pilgrimage,
and by your prayers, grant that all families
may one day be reunited in our heavenly homeland,
where you await all humanity
for the great embrace of life without end.

Amen.

You may have heard your students speaking about our virtues and our efforts to treat others

with kindness, respect, and responsibility each and every day. We have been working with our virtues for the past few years and students are doing well learning and understanding them.

October is a month of many celebrations. It is National Fire Prevention Month and National School Lunch month and we are grateful for the ways these people keep us safe and feed us great lunches respectively. We celebrate Columbus Day, Red Ribbon Week, and recognize the importance of always being kind and respectful during Anti-bullying month. We pray for all teachers on World Teacher Day.

In our Catholic schools we honor the feast days of our saints (St. Therese of Lisiuex, St. Francis of Assisi, and many more) and we celebrate October as the Month of the Rosary. In our classrooms and as a school we pray decades of the rosary and gather for a Living Rosary, both with our grandparents and as a school. Perhaps you can do the same in your homes as we honor Mary, the Mother of Jesus.

There are many celebrations within our classrooms, as well. Our teachers and students are working hard to navigate through their subjects. Students are learning a variety of strategies to improve their reading skills and we are focusing on improved writing skills, as well. And you would be impressed to see how students are growing in the area of Math. I am so proud of our students and their teachers.

We welcome our grandparents to Holy Trinity today. We will begin with Mass, then time for grandparents to see the wonderful things happening in our classrooms, followed by time to play BINGO, play games, and visit the book fair. Lastly, we will join together in church to pray the Rosary together. We look forward to this wonderful time of sharing and fun.

Blessings,

Mrs. Longden

To Jesus we go, through Mary
