Dear Families,

I am very excited to share with you the launching of a new program this week. On Wednesday during our school Mass, Father Tom will bless two new statues, a statue of Rosa Mystica and an Immaculate Heart of Mary statue. These statues have been shared with us by the Lee and Boehmler families. Each week (from a Wednesday to the following Wednesday) two families will have the opportunity to take these statues home and use them as a source of inspiration, prayer and reflection. The bag containing the statue will also have suggested prayers. Many thanks to Mrs. Deb Boehmler, Chair of the Home and School Spiritual Life Committee, for her efforts in making this idea a reality. In this year focused on tradition, I am thrilled to start this new tradition which will hopefully be one full of meaning and faith for each of you.

Only By His Grace,

Veronica Tucker

There have been some questions about compliance with the uniform code in regards to hair and highlights. The handbook states that "no unnatural colored hair or excessive styles are allowed". This includes highlights or hair dyed any color other than its natural color. Additionally, "Boys' hair should not fall below the top of the collar nor over the eyebrows and needs to be cut above the ears".
