September 7, 2023
Dear Parents,
Our family is now complete with the addition of our Pre-K students this week. To celebrate and give thanks for the blessings God has bestowed upon our school community, we will have an Opening School Mass tomorrow at 10:30 AM. All are invited to attend with us!
Once again this week, there are many important school updates and reminders. Please read through the newsletter carefully.
- Back to School Night will be held this coming Wednesday, September 13th. There will be two sessions. The first begins at 6:30 PM for parents of students in Grades 5 - 8. Please go directly to your child's homeroom. The teachers will rotate into each classroom to discuss their subject area. This session will end promptly at 7:10 PM. Parents of students in Grades 1 - 4 will be invited into their child's classroom at 7:15 PM. This session will end at 7:45 PM. We look forward to greeting everyone!
- As you know, we will no longer be utilizing Option C. This will end on September 30th. FACTS will be our new Student Information System. We are very close to implementation. Look for more information in next week's newsletter.
- Pretzel Orders are due tomorrow, Friday, September 8th.
Thank you for your constant support and prayers for our school. I encourage you to continue to support our work as we advance our mission to provide a transformative education steeped in academics and faith to our deserving students. There is no greater investment for forming our future saints than a Catholic education!
Please carefully review this week's newsletter for many reminders and updates. We thank you for entrusting your children to us and for the sacrifices you make each day to send your child(ren) to Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic School.
God's peace,
Mrs. Barbara Riley
