Dear Panther Family,
I hope you had a BLESSED Christmas and New Years! During the break, I prayed for your families from our Motherhouse in Nashville, and I asked the Lord to send you His peace, healing power, and love. May each of us daily walk with Jesus as our lives unfold according to His Master Plan. Catholic Schools Week is coming up, and we will be celebrating our mission along with every Catholic School across the nation. Catholic Schools Week is a fun week for our students, and it also reminds us why St. Paul School exists-- to form disciples of Jesus. All of our efforts toward educating your child in an academically challenging environment finds its purpose and meaning in our mission to spread the Good News and teach our young people how to follow the way of justice, love, and truth.
We will be sending out a parent survey this month--thank you for your honest feedback as we strive to continue to advance our school program. We want to know what we are doing well, identify areas that may need strengthening, and also be open to ideas you may have for our school program.
GO PANTHERS and God bless you!
Sister Mary Lawrence, O.P.
