We will watch from the playground. Family members are invited to come join us and are invited to bring a chair if they wish. We have enough glasses for all the students and staff and a few extra, but please plan on bringing your own.
DRIVERS NEEDED! We would like to send all of our 6th & 7th graders to the Vocations Day on Wednesday, May 1st, at Our Lady of Lourdes in Columbia. Last year, the 6th graders were unable to attend. Please, if you are able to drive, let us know as soon as possible so that we are able to make reservations for our students. We do have one driver so far, so the 6th graders will be attending.
