Hello and welcome to the new week!

Welcome to the week ahead filled with promise and excitement! Please remember that Monday is a Feast Day, the Entry of the Theotokos. Our school will be celebrating the Liturgy in the Cathedral. Please ensure you arrive promptly at 8 am (15 minutes earlier if serving in the altar). For drop-off, use the main Cathedral entrance on Geary, the doors to the Narthex. Students can drop off their items downstairs and then head back up for Church. Attire should be in school uniforms, with PE clothes for changing later in the day. This Friday will be our oral spelling bee at 1pm (after lunch and recess). Lastly, our toy drive concludes on Wednesday, December 6th. If you wish to contribute, kindly do so by Wednesday!
