Principal Update 10/16

Dear Parents and Faculty,

During the month of October, which is the month of the Holy Rosary, I would strongly encourage you to pray at least one decade of the rosary each day. There are many in our school and local community that depend on our prayer support.

May we continue to support one another in prayer.

Be assured of my daily prayer for your family.

God bless,

Sister Margaret
