PRINCIPAL'S CORNER
February has flown by, and being the shortest month this year it is no surprise! It seemed as though we fit quite a bit into this month, despite how short it was! This week marked the 100th day of school and that is no small accomplishment. 100 days are around the time it takes to form a new habit. We believe that good habits are virtues, a special habit that helps transform our actions and lives into reflections of our Creator. What new habit or virtue have you been working on with your child during these past 100 days? Maybe you are working on the virtue of punctuality and trying to get your child to school on time? Maybe you are modeling the virtue of patience every morning in the school parking lot? Maybe you are practicing the virtue of fortitude as you support your child through their nightly homework. Whatever you have been doing, congratulations! You are well on your way to making this new habit a life-long virtue for you and your family.
Now think about what the next 100 days can bring for you and your family! It’s never too late to water the seeds of good habits so that virtues can blossom!
St. Jude, Pray for us!
KINDERS ARE 100 DAYS SMARTER
On Wednesday our intrepid Kindergarteners celebrated their 100th day of school. The occasion was marked with counting cereal for necklaces, decorating party hats, and sharing personal “100 days” poster projects.
Thank you to the Kinder team for supporting our youngest students for 100 days and thank you to our parents for letting us share in their joy!
