Congratulations to all of our students who participated in this year's Academic Fair! The creativity and hard work on display were truly impressive! We also wish the best of luck to our remaining playoff basketball teams! We are cheering you on every step of the way.

Please keep our 8th graders in your prayers as they receive the Sacrament of Confirmation next week. This is a beautiful milestone in their faith journey, and we are so proud of each of them.

It was truly touching to see the outpouring of love and support in remembrance of Ms. Ibbotson. Please continue to keep her family in your prayers.

We understand the desire to welcome everyone, but once the church doors are locked, they must remain closed to align with our school Mass safety protocols.

Daylight Saving Time begins Sunday, March 8th! With spring weather here, please remember to keep your carpool tags visible in your vehicle at all times during drop-off and pickup. Thank you for helping keep the line moving smoothly!

Reminder from the Nurse: For the safety of all students, the school must follow written doctor’s orders regarding restrictions from P.E., sports, or recess. If we have a medical note on file indicating a student may not participate, we cannot override that instruction based on verbal permission.

If your child has been medically cleared to resume activities, please provide updated written documentation from the healthcare provider so we may adjust accordingly.
