Christmas Blessing

Dear Parents,

As we celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we give thanks for the gift of your children and the blessings they bring to our school community. May this Christmas fill your homes with joy, peace, and love.

May the light of Christ guide you and your family in the year ahead, and may His grace and blessings surround you always.

Wishing you a holy and joyous Christmas!

With love and prayers,

Maria Sanson and the Saint Mark Faculty and Staff

Christmas Show

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made the night so magical. To our talented music teacher, Mrs. DeLisa, thank you for organizing such a beautiful Christmas show—it was truly a delight. To Mrs. DelRossi, your support for the play made it a memorable performance. A special thanks to the Father's Club for building the manger, adding such a meaningful touch to the evening.

And to all the children—your wonderful performances filled our hearts with joy and reminded us all of the true meaning of Christmas. Thank you for your hard work and spirit!

It was a night to treasure, and we are so grateful to have shared it together.

Santa Hat Contest

We want to thank all the teachers for getting into the Christmas spirit with their wonderfully decorated Santa hats! The creativity and effort you all put into the contest made it a delight for everyone. It was no easy task to pick a winner, but after much deliberation, congratulations go to Mrs. O'Neil for her winning design!

A big thank you as well to the Student Council for organizing this fun and festive contest—it brought so much joy and holiday cheer to our school.

Well done, everyone!
