Dear Panther Family,
You have been in my prayers as we have responded to this wintry weather. The entire campus is still a blanket of ice, and I am hopeful the next few days will melt the parking lot and driveways. We will keep you posted each day.
Online re-enrollment is now open, and I encourage you to register your child as soon as possible before the open enrollment begins so that your child's place in the class is secure. We are so happy to partner with you in the education of your child during these exciting times of school expansion and improvements.
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.
Principal
