This week, we celebrated our Pre-K graduation with some song, dance, and rhyme! We are so proud of these students, and we know they're ready for Kindergarten!!! Today was (and I quote) "The Best Day Ever!" Thank you to all of our parent volunteers and our PTO for making this such a GREAT day!!!
At our last school mass of the year, we had the chance to celebrate our Moms! Moms, Grandmas, Aunts, Older Sisters - all of the special females in our students' lives were invited to join us for mass. Father Matthew prayed a special blessing over them all and at the end of mass, we processed out to crown our Mother, Mary! It was a beautiful day to celebrate the special women in our students' lives! For the past several weeks, Mrs. Nolan has led a group of Middle School students in designing an Escape Room. This is no easy task as students have to create a theme and decor, design multiple clues and riddles, and think "backwards" by figuring out the ending before building the entire room. This week, our students, staff, and parents had the opportunity to "break out" and it was a challenge! Our students loved this experience and learned a lot! We are so grateful to Mrs. Nolan for giving them this opportunity! Yesterday, we hosted a Star Wars Dress Up Day Fundraiser for the FIRE Foundation! For a small donation, students and staff were invited to wear their Star Wars attire to school! It was a very special day for a good cause! We are so proud of our 2nd grade students who, along with our Middle School choir, led our school mass today! It was a special treat to see many of the students dressed in their First Communion attire! Mark your calendars now for the annual St. Patrick Auction! This year, we're taking it to the beach, so get dig out your Hawaiian luau attire and help us raise money for St. Patrick!
We are so proud of our students who celebrated their First Communion this weekend! |
