“Do not let a day pass without doing some good in it.”
St. Philip Neri
From Mr. Merrick
Dear St. Jerome Families,
We all hope that your summer vacation is off to a pleasant and restful start. This June newsletter contains some reminders and information as we continue through the summer.
We congratulate our Students of the Month for June; these students were recognized for living the virtue of faith and trying to live it for June (as well as the entire year) as a combination of all of the virtues that we practiced this year: Kaden Ewing, Helena Profka, Sofia Hood, Colton Knecht, Olivia Evans, Jerry Kling, Ameila Brown, Victor Nguyen, Liam Platowski, William Rhoads, Ryleigh Dever, Chase Jerden, Justin Dolphin, Alesia Prifti, Kyle Allmond, and Emma Parkinson.
We appreciate the contributions of the St. Jerome School Class of 1973 and their continued generosity in presenting an annual scholarship to a seventh grader student of integrity, respect, compassion, courage, and reason. We are pleased to announce that Gavin Moore, rising 8th grader, was presented with this scholarship for his 8th grade year at St. Jerome on the last day of school.
I would like to thank parishioner Jack Driscoll who generously volunteered his time (and has been doing so in past school years) as our school nurse one day a week and during special events. We are grateful for the support in taking such good care of all of our students who have to visit the nurse’s office on Wednesdays.
Please remember that if you applied for financial assistance through Fact Aid, we will be finding out our allocation and notifying you of any assistance that we can give in July.
Our summer office hours are 8:00 AM until 2:00 PM, Monday through Thursday. The school office is closed on Fridays.
We will be sending out two newsletters a month during the month of July, and August to keep informed over the course of the summer. We will resume with the weekly reminder emails on Sundays and the weekly newsletters on August 29th.
Have a great rest of the week and summer; St. Jerome, pray for us!
