Christmas Blessings to All of Our Saint Rita Family!
I am so thankful for the families and staff that contribute each day to our community. I am thankful for Father Eric's leadership and constant support of the school. I am especially thankful for the precious children entrusted to us each day. Please know that you are all in my prayers this Advent season, throughout the Christmas holidays, and always.
Don't forget those in need this season. Donations of coats, hats, and gloves are still welcome at Eastside Community Assistance (formerly Eastside Ministries), or you may drop them off at the school this week.
See the message below about Grandparents' Day in January. We look forward to seeing all of the grandparents and grand-friends during Catholic Schools Week.
Peace,
Mrs. Mary Burns
