Dear Parents and Guardians,

Thank you students, parents, and teachers for another successful Open House. We had about 30 new families visit our school, eager to enroll.  If you have not already submitted your re-enrollment through PowerSchool, please do so before we open up registrations for new families, next Wednesday, February 8th.   

Last week, Father Jim visited each room for a classroom blessing, in preparation for Catholic Schools Week.  Many teachers were so touched by the blessing that they asked for copies.  I’d like to share it HERE with all of you, because it fully encompasses what we strive to create in our classrooms on a daily basis!  

We look forward to finishing Catholic Schools Week in a spirit of unity and joy.

Have a great week!

Annie Borjas
Principal

Queridos Padres y Guardianes,

Gracias estudiantes, padres y maestros por otra Casa Abierta exitosa. Tuvimos unas 30 familias nuevas que visitaron nuestra escuela, ansiosas por inscribirse. Si aún no ha enviado su inscripción a través de PowerSchool, hágalo antes de que abramos las inscripciones para nuevas familias, el próximo miércoles 8 de febrero. 

La semana pasada, el Padre Jim visitó cada salón para bendecir el salón de clases, en preparación para la Semana de las Escuelas Católicas. Muchos maestros quedaron tan conmovidos por la bendición que pidieron copias. ¡Me gustaría compartirlo con todos ustedes aquí, porque abarca completamente lo que nos esforzamos por crear en nuestras aulas a diario! 

Esperamos terminar la Semana de las Escuelas Católicas con un espíritu de unidad y alegría.

¡Que tengan una buena semana!

Annie Borjas
Directora
