The Preschool Press

This week we learned about St. Patrick and how he taught people the Holy Trinity. In Music we listened to a song written by St. Katharine Drexel and played a real xylophone. We heard the story of the found sheep in Catechesis of the Good Shepherd and started preparing our box cars in Art for our parade happening April 22nd (more information coming soon).

Marquette and ECDC will be closed the week of March 14th for Spring Break. School resumes on Monday, March 21st.
