Enjoy this long weekend! School will be closed on Monday, May 27th, in observance of Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the last Monday of May. This day is set aside to honor all of the men and women who died while in military service to our country. Remember and Honor!

Lord God, we ask for your almighty hand to be upon our Graduates.

Bless their lives from this day on with goodness and love.

Help them to stay true to their dreams, to use their gifts wisely,

and to walk into the future with faith, hope, and great love.

Amen

Our Life Skill for this week will focus on "Courage: Do what is right rather than what is easy." Be willing to step out of your comfort zone. Try new things and don't be afraid to fail. Failure is sometimes our greatest teacher. Anything worth achieving is never easy, have the courage to take on challenges. Have a growth mind set and never give up!

On Friday, our Kindergarten, First and Second Grade students celebrated a successful year of their Superkids Reading Program by dressing up as their favorite characters! Great job Super Saints!

This week, Father Vic visited our 5th Grade class to discuss Holy Orders. Having just completed this chapter, Mrs. Olivar and her students had many questions, which Father Vic expertly answered. He shared valuable insights about the sacrament and its importance in the Catholic Church, explaining how men are ordained as priests, deacons, or bishops. Thank you, Father Vic, for your wonderful visit!

Thank you to our school community for your cooperation and working with our extended care provider, Fusion Sports League. A quick reminder that dismissal from aftercare will follow the same procedures as the regular school day car line dismissal procedures. We kindly request that parents wait in their cars during pickup as one of the Fusion Sports Coaches accompanies your child to your vehicle. We thank you in advance for your cooperation as we continue to streamline and expedite this process.

If your child participates in after-school activities and you pick up in Lane 2, please proceed to the outside of Lane 2, as the inside lane is reserved for aftercare pickup. Additionally, we kindly ask that if you arrive before the designated dismissal time, you park in a designated parking space to ensure a smooth flow in Lane 2. Your cooperation is invaluable in maintaining a safe and efficient environment for everyone at our school.
