OLLV Catholic School

Be it known to all who enter here, that Christ is the reason for this school. He is the unseen, but ever present teacher in the classrooms, the model of its faculty, and the inspiration of its students.

This week we will be focusing on being Noble. If you say that someone is a noble person, you admire and respect them because they are unselfish and morally good.

Having good manners is part of being Noble. This week we will focus on using our manners throughout the day.

Thank you for your patience and kindness as we work through the morning drop-off procedures. Here are some things that YOU can do to help make the process easier:

1. Use the car line. Parents of students in grades 1-8 should be using the car line and entering the parking lot on Campbell. The Alta entrance is for parishioners attending 8 AM Mass. Pre-K and Kinder parents may park in the lot behind Bevan Hall and walk their students to the gate.

2. Pull all the way up in line so we can fit as many cars as possible. Students can enter campus at whatever gate they are closest to.

3. Say good-bye while you are waiting in the line and so when you pull up to the front your kids are ready to jump out quickly so you can keep the line moving.

4. Stay in the car. If your child needs help opening the door, roll the window down and ask the closest adult to help.

5. Practice patience and be kind! Remember, our number one goal is to keep our students safe!

Dear Parents of Our Lady of Las Vegas,

We are excited to announce the launch of our new sports clubs for students in kindergarten through 5th grade! To make these clubs a success, we are seeking dedicated parents like you to step up and become coaches for our young athletes.

We are currently looking for coaches for the following sports:

1. Soccer

2. Basketball

3. Cross Country

4. Track

5. Volleyball

Coaching is not just about teaching the fundamentals of a sport; it's about instilling values, building character, and fostering a love for physical activity. By becoming a coach, you could make a lasting impact on the lives of our students, helping them develop skills that will benefit them both on and off the field.

We understand that your time is valuable, so we have designed our sports clubs to be flexible. Coaches can choose the days and times that work best for them, ensuring that coaching fits into your schedule.

Don't worry if you've never coached before! We welcome parents of all skill levels and will provide training and support to help you feel confident in your role as a coach. Your enthusiasm and dedication are what truly matter.

If you are interested in becoming a coach for one of our sports clubs, please contact Coach Scarpati at jscarpati@ollv.org for more information. Together, let's create a positive and empowering sports experience for our students!

Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our young athletes. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Best regards,

Coach Scarpati
