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.”
