J-Lo's Word
I cannot even begin to put into words what my time at Fatima has meant to me personally and professionally just in the short 7 months that I have been honored to be your principal. The Love and Spirit that surrounds the Fatima campus makes my heart burst with pride, and I know that Jesus himself flows through our hallways and classrooms.
Proverbs says, “train a child in the way he should go…and when he is older he will not depart from it.” Part of our Mission at Our Lady of Fatima is to educate the whole child. The growth at Fatima is evident. As we approach Catholic Schools Week and celebrate the blessings we all share in getting to be part of Catholic Education, I invite all families to participate in our activities.
Next Thursday is our OPEN HOUSE and 8th grade Spaghetti Dinner from 5-7pm! We have three strong, intelligent 8th grade girls fundraising for an educational trip to Washington, DC. Please support these young ladies in their quest to raise money for their educational trip. We invite anyone who wants to see our campus to come to Open House. We will have a table set up with informational packets and early bird registration details for our 2019-2020 school year! We want YOU to be part of our growth at Fatima!
Thank you to all who support us and Catholic Education. We love our Parish families. We love our Fatima families. And most of all, we love our Savior Jesus Christ and his Blessed Mother.
