Note from the Principal

cross country team imageDear Parents,

Happy New Year! It's difficult to believe that the beautiful feast of Christmas is already behind us. The month of December was a busy one for all of us at school. Seven families involved with the Pastoral Care Center had a special Christmas thanks to your generosity. Did you see the wonderful picture of our children in the Nashua Telegraph honoring them for their efforts?

In December, we also enjoyed the Drama Club's Christmas production (be sure to check out the PhotoGallery for pictures), celebrated the feasts of St. Nicholas and the Immaculate Conception, and the children enjoyed shopping at the Gift Room. Three classes had field trips to various sites around the area.

Looking forward to February, we start the month off with a special week long celebration of Catholic Schools week, which ends with our Family Valentine's Dance. Also, our school will be participating in the Fuel Up to Play contest, sponsored by the National Dairy Council and the National Football League (see below).

May the peace, joy and love of Jesus remain with you throughout the New Year,
Estelle S. LaFleur
Principal
