Dear Friends,

On behalf of the Parents Association, I would like to take this time to welcome all of you to the 2016-2017 school year here at Holy Name Jr./Sr. High School.  During the course of the school year, we will be sending out monthly newsletters, meeting reminders and advise you to what is going on with our school community. 
  
 I would also like to thank all the parents who attended our first PA meeting of the year this evening.  As a reminder, all are welcomed to attend the meetings and participate in any one of the Parents Association sponsored events throughout the year.

If you have any questions please contact us at [email protected].

God bless,

Kathy Rabbett
