Principal Newsletter
From the Desk of Mrs. Riley
March 18, 2021
Dear Parents,
We are now half way through the month of March and well into the Lenten Season. We know that entering the desert with Jesus and following his example is not an easy journey. It has hardships and those hardships require us to let go of things that will prepare us for eternal life. May the Holy Spirit dwell in you and continue to guide you on your Lenten journey.
Here are a few important updates and reminders:
- Congratulations to our 2nd grade class who made their First Penance today! May they be blessed with the experience of God's forgiveness and mercy.
- Tomorrow is our last scheduled day of Terra Nova testing. Make up testing will take place Monday, March 22 through Thursday, March 25. Students making up testing will be responsible for any classwork that they miss.
- Many families are planning vacations over Easter break. This is just a reminder that Our Lady of Good Counsel School is still requiring a 10 day quarantine for students traveling out of state. Please email me if your child will be traveling and we can establish the quarantine dates.
- Report cards were sent home on Monday. Please return only the report card envelope to school.
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
