Dear Parents,
Wishing you a
Happy New Year
with the hope that you will have many blessings in the year to come. As the routine of back to school and work takes place this week, it is time to start planning ahead to a busy January.
Please start planning for the following January events. The annual school Spelling Bee will take place on Friday, January 11th at 1:15 pm in the gym. Student-led conferences will take place on January 30th and 31st and Catholic Schools Week will be the week of January 27th.
Just a few comments regarding weather related closings even though the last few days have felt like Spring! Please keep in mind that for closures or delays we always follow Dublin City Schools. When the TV or radio announces Columbus Catholic Schools, they are referring to the Catholic schools that are in the Columbus City Schools boundaries. In addition we also use the directory information in SchoolSpeak to send out emails and phone calls notifying parents about closures and delays. Please make sure your contact information in our school data base is always current.
A reminder that if St. Brigid and Dublin Schools are open and your district of residence (Olentangy, Hilliard, etc) is closed or delayed, you are then responsible for your child's school transportation that day. Safety is always at the forefront of these decisions.
Blessings for a healthy, happy and faith-filled new year,
Kathy O'Reilly

What is it that you truly long for?
Most likely it's love that is free, faithful and fruitful. Women, join Family First on Jan 15 from 9:30-11 a.m. as we continue to watch and discuss the
YOU: Life, Love, and the Theology of the Body DVD series. At this meeting, we will begin Episode 6 with the topics "Free, Total, Faithful, Fruitful" and "Contraception and Abortion." On Feb 5, we'll continue this topic with several segments about Pornography. All of these videos are enlightening and merciful, and can encourage spiritual healing and growth while also giving us nuggets we can instill in our children. This series continues through May 2019; check out our schedule at
stbrigidofkildare.org/familyfirst/.
