A Moment for Mission

May the strength and true consolation of the Holy Spirit be in you all, so that you can sustain and carry out vigorously and faithfully the charge laid upon you.

St. Angela Merici-Prologue to the Counsels

Hello!

Thanks to all of you who joined us for the Parent Social - It was a great opportunity to connect and reconnect.

It’s impossible to think that the first quarter has ended. It seems to happen sooner every year, mostly because there are so many activities to kick off the year! While that’s slowed a bit, the enrollment season for the Class of 2031 is in full swing! Open House will take place on October 18th, 11am to 3pm. Be sure to spread the word to anyone you know who’s currently exploring high school options. Open House is a great opportunity to see everything UA has to offer.

And a special shout out to our Ambassadors, who have been doing a GREAT job with shadow visits, tours and high school fairs. We know that prospective students - and their parents - really want to hear from current students about their experience at Ursuline. Ambassadors take on a big responsibility as representatives of the school community and with classes and extracurriculars, it can add some stress to their day. 

The level of enrollment activity remains high through Open House, but afterwards there is less to do.If you have an Ambassador in your house, please encourage her to continue doing a good job, knowing that she is making a very real difference at Ursuline … and that it is greatly appreciated..   

And … don’t forget about Meet Me on Monroe on November 1st … the biggest one yet with 75 vendors!

All my best,

Peggy
