CATHOLIC IDENTITY SURVEY

Due by: Friday, May 13, 2022

So far we received 24 responses to our survey. This Catholic Identity Assessment Guide incorporates a vision of the Catholic character of the school within an assessment and review process designed to identify strengths and target areas for growth.

The focus of this assessment process is to build on the strengths within the school while affirming and encouraging efforts to live out the Catholic character in all aspects of the school's life.

Join us on Tuesday, May 10 at 3:15 pm in the Science lab to start to plan for a 2022-23 Robotics Season.

Come to the Science classroom, check out the Robotics area near the library, and learn about the 2022-23 Lego League Competition and how to support the team as a coach or with fundraising for the 2022-23 school year. Your STM student is welcome to attend with you.

If you have any questions, or if you cannot attend but want to participate, email Maura Clancy (Mom to Eithne and Eoin, Gr. 4) maura_clancy@hotmail.com.
