Saint of the Day 3/1
Every saint has a story & St. David of Wales is the patron saint of Wales and perhaps the most famous of British saints. Ironically, we have little reliable information about him.

Saint David, pray for us. Read more below:

A Note from the Principal

Happy President's Day!

We are excited to announce that tomorrow (Tuesday) we will be welcoming the Smet Family, our superintendent, and other members of the Archdiocese leadership to our campus at 10am tomorrow for a check presentation ceremony. The Smet family has been one of the biggest donors and blessings to our school over the past 4 years. Please come by the school at 10am tomorrow if you are available to help us thank them in person!

Student of the Month will be on Friday. We will be celebrating students who demonstrate the character pillar of Integrity this month. It will also be the end of the second trimester. Report cards will be distributed next Friday, 3/4.

We are sad to announce that we will not be hosting a school carnival this year- the carnival company is doing business outside of California at this time. We have already booked the carnival for next year in February though! We will be taking the required 6 carnival hours off of the service hour requirements this year.

Happy birthday to Ms. Ascencio, our preschool aide (Tuesday 2/22). We pray that God bless her and her work with our youngest students.

A Note from the Principal

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

We had so much fun celebrating Catholic School's Week! The teachers and I would like to thank all of you for the sacrifices you make to keep your student in our Catholic School.

All candy money is due today (Monday) to qualify for prizes. Any money not returned by tomorrow will be automatically charged to your Facts account.

Next week there will be street repaving on Hamlin Street on Tuesday 2/15. The whole street will be closed all day. In order to avoid any issues and inconveniences for our families we have decided to use one of our faculty professional development days on the 15th so there will be NO SCHOOL. This means we will have a 4 day weekend as we had already scheduled no school on the 14th. (We are simply rescheduling a professional development day- NOT taking extra days off)
