Welcome families to St. Mary Catholic School!

 

We hope your summer has been filled with fun family activities while enjoying the wonderful sunshine. How quickly summer concludes and our thoughts turn to preparing for the start of school. This is one of my favorite times of the year!  I love the excitement of beginning each new school year and eagerly await welcoming our students and hearing their great summer stories. Our faculty, staff, and I are looking forward to a new school year and are working hard to see that your child’s learning experience is a successful and happy one.

The school truly looks better than ever! We have been hard at work all summer remodeling, painting, cleaning, organizing, consolidating, and beautifying the building to get ready for the new year. Along with a new look comes a new theme. This year's theme is “Our hands do the work of the Lord.”

 

Everyone can use an extra smile, an extra kind word, someone to go out of their way to do a kind act. We will be talking about random acts of kindness, things we can do to make others smile, and how helping others can go a long way.

 

Your partnership and support are key elements to ensuring that we are able to maximize each student’s educational and personal development. During the upcoming year I encourage you to take an active role in your child’s learning. Parent involvement plays a critical role in our school’s success.  As partners we share the responsibility for our children’s success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities. Ways to support and increase your child’s academic success include:

​

• Make attendance a PRIORITY including limiting tardiness and absences

• Complete all homework assignments given by the teacher

• Communicate often with your child’s homeroom teacher

• Read with your child at least 20 minutes a day to develop a love of reading and improve literacy skills

• Limit television and social media, encourage outside play

• Review the school day with your child so that you are aware of his/her school life

• Volunteer your time. Our students greatly benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school’s programs and operations.

​

The staff and I are eagerly waiting to welcome you to another wonderful school year and look forward to seeing families and students very soon!
