Dear Parents,
Welcome back from Spring Break and Happy Easter to one and all! We joyfully celebrate Easter and the 50 days that follow it as the center of our belief in the Good News that Christ is Risen! The implications of this bring us to know some deep truths about life and death. At its essence, we can say that we know that life, when generously given away, never runs out! That is a powerful statement which is difficult to grasp. Yet, this is what we believe. We believe this not only about the person of Jesus, who, as The Christ, is the fullness of God in a human form, but we believe this about our own lives. Therein lies our hope, our joy and our peace. May the depth of this knowledge fill us and flow out of us as the hope, the joy and the peace which is our privilege to give the world.
Moving into our long and glorious Easter Season, we are also moving into our fourth and final quarter of the academic year. In this week’s Thursday Mail we conclude the third quarter with a congratulations to all who are listed on the Honor Roll below and we congratulate all who have worked hard and grown (whether they are on the Honor Roll or not). Transitioning now into our last quarter of love and learning, we also offer our congratulations to our Fifth Class D.A.R.E. graduates and we look forward to the Third through Seventh Class standardized testing which is scheduled for next week.
Always attentive to the social, emotional, relational and behavioral growth of our students, I encourage you to read the information below about the social media education being provided not only for you but for our oldest students as well.
May the learning and growth continue for all of us, on all levels of our being.
United in joy, hope and peace,
Maureen Glavin, rscj
