Being a part of a Catholic school community is such a blessing!  I loved attending family mass on Sunday with all of our students. I hope all those who came are enjoying their free dress today! Please join us on Oct. 28th for our next family mass. Louisville Highschool will be having a trunk-or-treat for the community on Friday, Oct. 26th. It's FREE! Here is the FLYER.

We are still collecting food donations for Pan de Vida. Please bring in cereal or soup if you can. Also, the kindness club will begin their pet food drive this week.

Have you signed up for Ukulele classes yet? They will begin next week! 

"Pray, hope and don't worry. Anxiety doesn't help at all. Our Merciful Lord will listen to your prayer."— Saint Padre Pio

P.S. If anyone has an extra refrigerator  (or would like to donate one) the fridge in the faculty lounge broke last week and we would like to replace it.

With love,
Mrs. Giron

I hope everyone had a restful weekend! I am finally starting to feel like it is fall because we spent the weekend on the baseball field. Now, if only the weather would follow suit...As the school year kicks off and the fall holidays are around the corner, we are reminded of how much we have to share with others.Pan de Vida (our church's food pantry) is in need of cereal & soup donations. If you are able to donate, please turn in to your child's teacher ASAP.

Ms. Benson is starting an after-school ukulele club in October! Here is the FLYER. Come by the office if you are interested in joining!

STAR testing starts this week. Please be sure your students get ample sleep and eat a great breakfast every day. The STAR test is a great way for our teachers to get to know our students' abilities and plan for instruction. You can expect to see the results from the test at our parent conferences in November.

Finally, if you haven't already, we ask that all of our parents who spend time on campus be fingerprinted and Virtus trained for our children's safety. Here are the details on how to do that: Safe Children.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. -Jeremiah 29:11
