School Year off to a great start !!!

We are encouraged by an exhortation by our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, (6/22/07):

"I encourage you to continue your efforts to promote Catholic schools, which provide an integral education at the service of families and of the transmission of faith. Their role, despite the great difficulties they can encounter, is essential to enabling young people to acquire a sound human, cultural & religious formation."

In the words of our Holy Father, Pope John Paul II:

Catholic education is above all a question of communicating Christ, of helping to form Christ in the lives of others…   Those who have been baptized must be made ever more aware of the gift of faith that they have received, they must learn to adore the Father in spirit and in truth, and they must be trained to live the newness of Christian life in justice and in the holiness of truth.   These are indeed the essential aims of Catholic education.   To foster and promote them give meaning to the Catholic school; it spells out the dignity of the vocation of Catholic educators.  It is above all a question of communicating Christ, and helping his uplifting Gospel to take root in the hearts of the faithful.   Be strong therefore, in pursuing these goals.  The cause of Catholic education is the cause of Jesus Christ and his Gospel at the service of man.

Our school took in over 90 Katrina students...

Note from New Orleans mother:  “While I was in the lobby of the school, I saw something that made me more determined to enroll my child at this school.  I saw happy children coming out of the classes, I saw teachers that cared about the students and treated them with respect, and I saw a principal that kept it all afloat.”  Marie Stafford
