Principal Newsletter
From the Desk of Mrs. Riley
January 12, 2023
Dear Parents,
We certainly can see many of God's blessings each day, even in the winter season. One of those greatest blessings is that of Our Lady of Good Counsel School. One of our favorite weeks of the school year is Catholic Schools Week and this year we will begin that celebration on Sunday, January 29th with our Open House. This year's theme is "Looking Back, Leaping Forward." Please see below for a brief list of the special events planned for the week.
Some school updates and reminders:
- School will be closed tomorrow Friday, January 13th and Monday, January 16th.
- Interim Reports will be distributed on Friday, January 27th.
- This month's Dress Down Day has been moved to Friday, January 27th.
- Graduation pictures and picture retakes will take place on Wednesday, January 25th.
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
Principal
