Daring Greatly in Faith, Academics, & Service for SMCS
Week 5 of 2020. Hello February!
Wow. Can you all join me in thanking Mrs. Mechtel, Mrs. Bazany, Mrs. Norton and Mrs. Tamez for planning our Catholic Schools Week! Thank you for bringing the crazy joy our way all week long.
Team, we are heading into the shortest, yet sometimes most frustrating month. Please remember your self-care as we storm through February and know you are in my prayers. If you need anything, I am never in my actual office--text me, call me and I'll run from where I am to your side of campus.
Remember Clubs start on Monday. See Roar for Sign Up List!
