 FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK:

v    The early bird registration fee of $140.00 ends on Thursday, May 1^st.  Please return your child’s registration form and fee to the school office by Thursday, May 1st.  Otherwise, the fee will be $165.00 per student.  NO EXCEPTIONS!  Please make sure that you designate on the registration form which parish you are registered with.  Also, it is very important that the office has a copy of your child’s immunization records, birth certificate and baptismal certificate, if Catholic. 

v    Ways to Help Your Child Love the Mass: Go to the same Mass each week- They will look forward to seeing the same faces each week.  Try to pick a Mass time close to when everyone wakes up.  That way they will be fresh and rested.

v    Reminder:  School begins at 8:00am.  We are having a problem with parents getting students here on time.  Please plan your mornings accordingly.  It’s not that hard.
