The Odyssey
June 7, 2024
From the Principal
Hello MQSCA Families-
Congratulations to the Mary Queen of Saints Catholic Academy Class of 2024! Last night, on Thursday, June 6th, we celebrated the graduation of another class of 8th-grade students. Once again, the majority of our 8th-grade students are moving on to Catholic or private high schools. Marquette University High School, Pius, Catholic Memorial, and St. Thomas More will be welcoming our graduates this fall. We wish them all the best in their future endeavors.
As teachers, this is a bittersweet moment for us. While we are excited for our students as they finish the school year, we also feel the sadness of saying goodbye to the relationships we have built. I would like to take this moment to express our gratitude to two teachers who will not be returning to our MQSCA family in the fall. Mr. McNerney will be returning home to Virginia to teach in the same school as his mom, which is pretty cool! MQSCA will miss his compassion for our students and the energy he brought to the after-school camp program. Mrs. Bojarski will also be pursuing her focus area and passion by taking a position with the Archdiocese. We thank her for her service to MQSCA and for the joyful attitude she brought to our staff and the classroom. She always brought joy to both the 4th and 5th-grade students and was always willing to lend a hand wherever needed.
This will be the last weekly Odyssey until August. The Odyssey will be published every other or every third Friday over the summer. Below are the summer hours for the office.
Thank you to all of our students, teachers, and MQSCA families for a wonderful year!
In Christ-
Mr. Lee

MQSCA will be offering two sports for the fall season. Soccer is for students in grades K5-8, while Volleyball is for students in grades 5-8. It's important to sign up your children now, as practices begin before the school year starts, and we cannot add players after the first day of school.
