A Note from the Principal's Desk...

Greetings,

We are now in full-swing in a new educational delivery of the curriculum - Google Classroom, Google Meet, Google Hangouts, and daily communication between teachers and students. We understand that not all students have access to technology during the day, so all lessons and meetings will be recorded and available for review by students allowing them to stay up to date with classwork. Grades 5, 6, 7, and 8 have created an online schedule as follows:

Mrs Weaver

Teachers are taking attendance and weekly grades will be posted on FACTS for parents to view. Third Quarter Marking Period ends April 3rd. Report Cards will be available on FACTS April 9th. Please do not hesitate to check in with the teachers on your child's progress.

Prayer in Time of Pandemic
Bishop McManus has asked that we join him in the following  Prayer in Time of Pandemic  and that you do so every day until this health crisis has passed.
 
O God, whose Only Begotten Son bore the weight of human suffering for our salvation, hear the prayers of your Church for our sick brothers and sisters and deliver us from this time of trial.
Open our ears and our hearts to the voice of your Son: Be not afraid, for I am with you always.
Bless all doctors and nurses, researchers and public servants;
give us the wisdom to do what is right and the faith to endure this hour,
that we might gather once again to praise your name in the heart of your Church,
delivered from all distress and confident in your mercy.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

May God protect you and your loved ones through this time of trial.
Don't forget to follow us!
