Dear Parents,

Thank you for another beautiful week with your children! One of the many challenging parts of this pandemic was the time we lost with the children being present on campus beginning way back in March.The summer always brings a quieter vibe as we are closing out the year and preparing, ordering, and organizing things for the next year; however, we tend to still have a little buzz with children here for childcare and, of course, our amazing Vacation Bible School. This year, we had none of that. It was desolate. I remember when we went to record the new drop off/pick up procedures in July, and I saw some of the children in their uniforms. It literally brought tears to my eyes. I thank you every day for entrusting your children with us and sharing our Home and School bond. I am so grateful for the OLMC community! I am thankful that more and more children are attending in-person, and I look forward to when all of the students are back! 

Dear OLMC Community,

This week the school calendar indicates the Progress Reports to be emailed. Under the current circumstances, we will not send out an “official” Progress Report, but we do encourage parents to check Renweb/FACTS to review your child/children’s grades. We will email home Report Cards for the first trimester on November 10th.

Please remember the children need to have a water bottle and two masks. We have gone through many masks and have been distributing water bottles, but we really need the children to bring their own. 

Dear OLMC Community,

Thank you for your patience with the new drop-off and pick-up system. We have been getting through the line faster and faster. By separating the 7th and 8th grade students who are “onlys” this next week, we should also increase the pick-up speed.

This Friday is a half day and we will have a 12:30 dismissal. The preschool dismisses at 12:15. PLEASE do not come early! If you have a preschool child and an elementary school child, your pick up time will be with the elementary.

Dear Parents,

I hope you are enjoying your long weekend. We are looking forward to seeing your children on Tuesday! 

Included in the newsletter is the invitation to our Fundraising event, the Night to Soar Gala. I will send more information home next week. 

We are offering a How to Afford A Catholic Education seminar on the 14th at 6:30 pm in the South side of McCready Hall. Please go to our website and register. It is free!
