Welcome Back!
A message from our principal
Good afternoon,
What a wonderful start to the new school year. We began the first day of school with a prayer service in the school library and ended the service in song. Thanks to all the parents who were able to attend.
All students (Kindergarten through eighth grade) were able to visit the church in preparation for our first school Mass this Thursday, August 24, at 8:15 a.m. Please know that all are welcome at our weekly Mass. Beginning with 8th grade on August 24, each class (down to 3rd grade) will host the weekly Mass.
I ask that all be very vigilant during the carline pickup time. It has always been my worst dream to have someone hurt during pickup time. The carline will become more comfortable as we progress through the week and year. For safety purposes, I encourage all to remain in your vehicles for pickup.
We have been blessed by generous donations from school and parish families.
Special thanks to the Student Council for the amazing balloon release and popsicles.
Thanks to the Home and School Association (HSA) for sponsoring the Back-to-School Bash and our Dads Club for the yummy hot dogs/refreshments.
Holy Family Catholic School continues to be blessed by our families and community.
Thank you for your support and your prayers.
Peace in Christ,
Dr. John Shreve
