OLVCS Updates
Summer Edition #3............................August 14, 2019
Good afternoon,
The official welcome back letter was mailed today, and should arrive by the end of the week.
It certainly is an exciting time of the year full of anticipation and maybe even a little apprehension, I know I am experiencing both! However, I remember Fr. Dadey's words, 'trust in God, put your faith in the Lord' and I am relaxed. We are truly blessed at OLVCS.
Please read through this Updates, there is some great information for the start of the year.
Mrs. Cindy Kolarik will be our Registrar beginning this month. Cindy is the mom of two OLV alumni, and is a strong supporter of our school. She will also help with marketing.
I look forward to seeing many of you at the Family Picnic on August 22nd. Information below. Please consider volunteering to help.
