A Student’s Prayer for a New School Year

August 23, 2024

Lord Jesus, I ask for Your help as I begin this new school year. Allow me to experience Your presence in the many blessings You put before me. Open my eyes to the new challenges and exciting opportunities that this new school year brings. Open my heart and mind to new friends and new teachers. Give me a generous spirit to be enthusiastic with my studies and courage to accept new opportunities. Help me to be attentive to my teachers and let me experience Your presence in my new friends. Jesus, inspire me to do my best this year! Amen

Welcome back to school! Week two is finished, and we are well into our new school year, practicing procedures and transitions, and diving into our subjects. It is delightful to see our returning students and to meet our new students.

We feel very blessed to have 156 students enrolled this year, God is good, and we appreciate each of one of you and your families!

Everyone is working hard learning procedures and schedules, as well as receiving academic and religious instruction. We have had two school masses thus far, and our students have done a beautiful job planning the Liturgy, as well as singing and responding. It is a very spiritually uplifting experience! Please join us every Thursday morning at 8:30 a.m.

Thank you so much for your patience and cooperation with our arrival and dismissal procedures. Please remember, for dismissal to enter the campus via Wells-Fargo, and proceed behind the rectory and the church to the school roadway for pick-up.

Thank you for your support and for sharing your precious children with us. We are looking forward to a wonderful school year!

God bless,

Ann M Feltner

The curriculum is marked by current content and fresh approaches to methodology. The emphasis is on principles rather than facts, on learning through problem-solving rather than by precept. We strive to offer a program which makes use of many sources of reading material, a wide variety of audio-visual and technology tools, and a multi-text approach to the content areas.
