News From the Principal

 





Dear Saint Jeanne's Families,

    We are one week into a wonderful beginning of the new school year!  There is so much joy and excitement as we make preparations for the busy year ahead!   This week we have our "Back to School" Nights planned for grades K-8.  Please note that this is one of the most important events on the calendar as it sets the tone for your child's school year and most importantly, it is the event that you will have the opportunity to learn more about the goals, expectations, curriculum, classroom rules/policies, and philosophies of your child's teacher(s).  We don't have child care available on these evenings so do your best to make arrangements for the evening or your child can quietly sit in on the classroom presentation.          
      Have you seen the signs mentioning our Fall Book Fair in the Library?  Be sure to stop in either before or after school or at the Back to School Night evening presentations!  Also, one of our parents who is an author (Rob Crisell), will be showcasing one of his latest children's books!
    Don't forget to look at the calendar each week on the Newsletter to keep informed of the latest events!  We have lots of school activities and after school programs which will be starting soon!
         As always, thank you parents for your positive spirit and joy-filled support!  We have lots to celebrate!

In the Company of Mary Our Lady,

Mrs. K Mora     Principal
