Blessed Mother Marie Rose,
we firmly believe in the power of your intercession with almighty God:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We beg you to hear our humble prayers and to obtain for us the favors
which we now ask in the silence of our hearts.
God, our Father, knows all, can do all things and loves us.
Sure of God's love and strong in our faith, together with you,
Blessed Mother Marie Rose, we accept God's most holy will.
Through Jesus Christ, Amen.

Grade 8 Pin Ceremony
Congratulations to our eighth-graders who received their pins on Wednesday, officially cementing their role as leaders in the middle school.
The class of 2030 was presented their pins by Ms. Witherspoon, congratulated by Principal Taranto, and blessed by all family members in attendance. Perhaps the best part: they each received personalized cookies from Marcesco Foods!
More photos are available in our Gallery page at ahns.org.

Students Receive Life-Saving Training
The Commons was packed on Tuesday for “Stop the Bleed,” a free life-saving training course offered by our friends in Albany Med Health System’s Trauma Program. The event was organized by Molly Edwards (whose father helped lead the training) and Ashley Albritton, who teamed with the American College of Surgeons as part of their senior service project.
Students and adults were able to learn crucial techniques to stop bleeding until medical professionals arrive, and gain the confidence they need to intervene to control bleeding effectively.
Each participant received a certificate of completion.
