| | | | | Dear Parents:
As part of our preparation for the Resurrection of Jesus on Easter Sunday, students in grades 3-8 will receive the sacrament of Reconciliation next Tuesday, April 9. Please prepare your children to receive this sacrament by helping them to decide how to make good choices in their lives and how to ask God's forgiveness for decisions they may have made that did not show love for God or one another.
STATIONS OF THE CROSS
Thank you to all who joined us yesterday morning for 3rd grades presentation of the first seven stations. On Tuesday, April 16, the 3rd graders will complete them by presenting stations eight through fourteen. Please join us at 8:30am in the church if you can for that presentation. | | | OUTDOOR ED
It is a little less noisy in the homes of fifth and sixth graders as well as here at school. We are happy to report that the fifth and sixth graders' made is safely to their Outdoor Education location. They will be back on Saturday tired, dirty but full of stories of the fun and education they experienced. | | PARENTS' CLUB NOMINATIONS This is your last chance! The Parents' Club is still seeking interested parents to take a leadership position as part of the 2019-2020 Parents' Club.
