Principal's Letter
Dear OLG Families,

What a glorious week we've had... excellent weather, beautiful service, and more. Our All School Mass this week emphasized the message of belief leading to seeing. I am honored every day to witness the growth of our students in their academics, service and leadership, and I believe there is always more happening that I don't see. A middle school "career day" presentation Thursday afternoon brought this to focus for me as I saw alumni and community members take time to share their work with our students... and our students actively participating! A Judge, a School Superintendent, a Performing Artist, a Pharmacist... thank you Sheila Hui for organizing and bringing together this wide and varied presentation for our students! As we move through this Spring, more volunteer opportunities (including getting a jumpstart on Parent Org for 2021-22) continue to pop up... deadline for logging volunteer hours is May 31st. Don't forget to log this weekend's Day of Service activities too!

Last week's Employment link is now fixed here and on our website. Thank you for sharing the good news of our school growing!
Speaking of good news, our updated Strategic Plan, Vision 2025, is off to the printers and is now online here! Thank you to Jason Howell, the entire School Commission, and the multitude of volunteers and parent input that renewed our vision and has brought this update to life. We continue to learn and grow together!

While classes are full or filling in some grades, we do have openings for more students in our Fall 2021 Kindergarten and 5th Grades, plus limited opening in other grades. Please keep in mind the referral you make is the strongest way we grow our community! Thank you for all you do as we journey together "as a sacramental community united and empowered by the Holy Spirit."
Yours in Christ,

Anton Kramer
