Dear St. Isidore School Families,

This afternoon we sadly say goodbye to our graduating Class of 2023! While we bid farewell to our students, many families will also graduate with their last child. We thank them for their many years of dedication, service, and commitment to Catholic education. Congratulations to all!! Goodbye to the following families: Bender, Daly, de Melo, Deneroff, Deviney, Dillon, Downey, Esposito, Gookins, Jensen, Johnson, Litvinenko, Mahler, Melczer, Murray, Navarro, Nocco, Numazu, Ospeck, Pringle, Pulsifer, Sharp, Smits, Sumaquial, Van Peteghem, Waizenegger, and Zikria.

Thank you to the 8th-grade families and Britton Family for hosting the 8th-grade student party. The students were sharing what a great time it was! I heard it was quite the splash!!

Four more days of school left! This has been a year full of activity and excitement! It would not be possible without the support of our entire community and the work of many - from our administration, faculty, and staff to all of our parent volunteers. We Thank You!!

Next Tuesday, June 6th, from 9:30 - 10:30 AM, we invite our volunteers to stop in for coffee and donuts in the St. Isidore Room. There are so many of you who have enthusiastically stepped in, giving your time. We appreciate all you have done this year!

In preparation for next year, the Parent Association has shared a LINK to sign up for areas you would like to serve our school next year. Thank you in advance for your interest. Once event chairs are selected, interested individuals will be contacted to serve on those committees. 

A huge thank you to all SIS students and families for your contributions to the shoe drive! Nearly 200 pairs of pretty amazing shoes were collected for Running with Love! Alum Paige Baldyga looks forward to bringing them to the families of Gonzalez this July.

Thank you once again to our Seventh Grade Parents for the wonderful 8th-grade luncheon this week. Everything was perfect! Next year, it’s your turn to relax and enjoy the festivities!

Congratulations to our former Deacon Binh, who was recently ordained a priest and will begin at Holy Spirit Parish in Fremont.     

In Prayer and Partnership,

Mrs. Carol Bender
