News From the Principal

 





Dear Saint Jeanne's Families,

    The Back to School Night evenings were well attended and the year is now in full swing!  Thank you so much for your enthusiastic support and wonderful spirit!  We are off to a great start!
      Don't forget that next week, Wednesday, September 21st and Thursday, September 22nd are the school's picture days for grades PS-8!  You will receive the proofs in a few weeks and then at that time can choose your favorite pose and send in your order form with a check.  If you are not satisfied with your child's pictures, retakes will be scheduled soon.
      Keep a close eye on the upcoming activities/opportunities for your child.  Currently we have our sports teams which will begin their game season next week, as well as our fall play, debate team, and cheer squad which have started their practices.  We will soon begin band practices, after school dance, and Christmas play rehearsals!  The after school math support for grades 3-8 is also underway!  Saint Jeanne's is an amazing place indeed!
         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
