A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
A couple of Spring traditions took place this week. Each year we look forward to the birth of the ducklings! I am pleased to announce they arrived. We have enjoyed watching momma and her babies all week. The May Crowning ceremony was beautiful, and the First Communion ceremony simply perfect. I really enjoyed seeing the parents, in-person, once again!
I will be working closely over the next week with our health district and fellow Lorain County schools concerning Governor DeWine's and the CDC's announcement regarding mask mandates. I want to be certain that I make the best decision for all our students, staff, and families. More information will follow.
Grace and peace,
Mrs. Molly Hibler

Save the Date
Attention all band parents. The spring band concert will be on Thursday, May 27 @ 6:30 pm under the pavilion. Having the concert outdoors is the safest way for the band students to share the music they have been playing this year. This will be a graded performance for Concert Band students, meaning attendance and participation are required. If for any reason, you do not feel comfortable having your child participate, you must let Mrs. Ramsey know either by email or handwritten note as soon as possible in order for your child to be excused.
We will be watching the weather closely as this date approaches. If the weather does not permit the concert to be held (i.e. wind, thunderstorms), it will be canceled. You are asked to bring your own lawn chair or blanket as we will have very limited seating provided. A gentle rain will probably not cancel the concert, but there will be limited space available for the audience in the pavilion, so we ask that you limit those who attend.
