FROM THE PRINCIPAL
NEW The faculty and I offer our sincere thanks to all of the parents who donated so generously to our
Day of Giving during Catholic Schools Week. The replacement of the choir risers was originally developed as a two year project due to the cost. Due to the overwhelming generosity of our school parents our original goal was met in a matter of hours and the second goal we set was surpassed as well. The total amount raised was over $6000.00 which will enable us to purchase most of the components this year. Hopefully, they will be here in time for the spring music concert. We are truly blessed to be members of such a generous community.
NEW On Tuesday, January 25th , several fifth grade students, accompanied by Mrs. Carol Messa, participated in the
Dream It, Design It competition sponsored by the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit. The students from each participating school worked as a team and were given a problem, and they had to think creatively and work together to develop the solution. Avery Donahue, Christian Estrada, Ben Martin and Bobby Stankiewitch enjoyed the experience a great deal.
Reminder Please see
this attached letter from Mrs. Lafferty regarding
Flexible Instruction Days.
