Looking Ahead:

Please continue practicing the Act of Contrition over the Thanksgiving break in preparation for their First Reconciliation. Some of the students already have it memorized! Thank you to all the parents for taking the time to practice with your child every night. I know they will be prepared and do great for their First Reconciliation in a few weeks.

Thank you to all the parents that volunteered at our First Reconciliation Retreat on Tuesday. Thank you to Ms. Westwood for volunteering and donating all the craft supplies for the students stained glass votives. We had a great time preparing for this very special sacrament of forgiveness.

We surpassed the school goal of 1,000 cans for our canned food drive! We collected 1,382 cans! Our school did such a fantastic job, and we are so proud of all of them! Thank you for donating non-perishable food to help St. Vincent de Paul feed families in need during Thanksgiving.

I hope all of you enjoy the week off of school, and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
