Dear OLG Families,
We're having a busy week even in these short three days! Enrollment / registration is underway, with more notes below for those who missed last week's State of the School. This weekend holds two major exciting events: the live preview & kickoff of the Auction (starts Friday right after school), and also our 7th & 8th grade Confirmation Mass with the Bishop (Sunday @ 11am)! Read more below (and also ask your child about the raffle opportunity they brought home today).
Quick Covid update: only one new case this week! As we've moved to the the five-day guidance (here) and continued a ll the layers of safety (testing, masking, distancing and more), we've kept strong our in-person learning while staying safe. Last week's state announcement of lifting mask mandates changes nothing at this time and will be reviewed with more local insight before the published March 21st implementation date.
In this newsletter:
- Registration reminders
-
All-in Auction = Raffle, Volunteers, free Preview Events, and more!
- CYO Gym/Volleyball news
- 4/2 = Day of Service signups!

Next week our school stays busy with the start of Lent (Ash Wednesday), a special Free Dress Friday, plus the live Auction!

Yours in Christ,
Anton Kramer

Let’s Turn that “wah wah” Beat Around with a new school-wide PA system!
