Principal's Message
As the last few weeks of school are upon us, it is vital to stay informed with current information. Though our school has persevered and excelled during the challenges of the past year, we realize virtual learning has an impact on academic achievement. Please read below concerning a Saints Scholars Academy, where students of all levels are invited to participate in a few weeks of academic support and extension. Also, note the adjusted schedule for weekly mass. What a blessing to continue to heal and recover from a very challenging year. Go Saints Forever.
