THANK YOU, MR. OPPEL!
We want to give a genuine THANK YOU to Mr. Cody Oppel, who is headed to JCPS starting next week. As you know, Cody was a student at St. Michael, worked in our childcare and after school care, and has been a counselor intern and then full-time counselor here at St. Michael. Over the last several years, Mr. Oppel has been an incredible role model to our students and staff. Today, watching him leave the volleyball court one last time as a staff member was tough!
Cody, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you tremendously for everything you have done here at St. Michael. You're leaving big shoes to fill and we all wish you the best of luck in your new role.
Our annual 8th grade vs. staff volleyball game was today and the staff won...again! Shout out to our awesome 8th graders for putting on a great competition!
Special thanks to Mr. Hoffman for planning this event each year and Mrs. Petkovic for coaching our students! It was a fun time!
We want to take this opportunity to introduce our updated tuition policy for St. Michael Catholic School. Please review the policy carefully, and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our Parish Business Manager, Terri Hayes, at thayes@stmichaellouisville.org.
We are currently working to finalize tuition rates for the 2025–2026 school year and will share that information as soon as it becomes available.
Thank you for your continued support of St. Michael Catholic School.
Sincerely,
Kristyn Bowman, Principal
Terri Hayes, Business Manager
