Notes from Dr. Mullenschlader
A Few Notes: Monday is not a Spirit Day Dress Down. Wednesday will be a Spirit Day Dress Down.
Good afternoon, this is the last newsletter of the school year. Thank you for an outstanding school year! I also would be remiss if I didn't say thank you for the birthday wishes and treats last month and the cards and well wishes for Principals Day this month. I am so grateful to work in such a supportive school and parish. God's work is being done here and it is a gift to be such an integral part of it.
Congratulations to our students who achieved so much greatness in the Catholic Math League. We had multiple classes that finished in the top three of our entire region, multiple students who finished first in our region, and multiple who finished top 10 Nationally. For the full results, please see the pdf that is below.
Congratulations to our Bobcat track athletes who competed in the CYC Track Championships. We had so many of our students participate in the event. I have the full results below. A couple of notable winners: 8-9 Boys 4x100, 12-13 Girls 4x100, and 4th grader Camilla Miner set a new CYC record in the long jump. What a fun season! Thanks to coach Alex Schmidt and the other coaches for making this season a great success.
Goodbye to our 8th graders, who will be graduating on Tuesday night. What a great year we had and we know they are going to do great things in high school. Thank you for your leadership! We are so proud of you! Come join us to say good bye to them on Monday after the 8th Grade vs Teacher Volleyball game!

Monthly Children's Mass
Dear St. Charles Borromeo School Families,
We are excited to announce the continuation of a heartwarming initiative to strengthen our
school community's spiritual bond - the Monthly Children's Mass! The next Children’s Mass
will be held on Sunday, May 19th, at 11a.m., with our eighth-grade students hosting Mass at St.
Charles Borromeo Parish. By actively participating in the various parts of the Mass (Liturgy of
the Word, Liturgy of the Eucharist) our students will experience firsthand the sacredness of the
Mass. Each month will be hosted by a different grade. We invite all families to attend this
special Children’s Mass and show your support as our children deepen their understanding of
our faith. Let’s come together as a school family to celebrate faith, love, and unity. We look
forward to seeing you there.
