Grandparents Day
This year, students in preK-4th grades are preparing a class video and greeting for their grandparents. Look for a link from your child’s homeroom teacher by April 30th. Students in grades 5-8 will be writing a note to each grandparent and bringing home a stamped envelope to be addressed and mailed out. Please look for these to come home close to April 30th as well. We look forward to having our Grandparents back with us next year!

8th Grade Chasity Rally
The chastity rally will now be held on three consecutive Tuesday evenings, April 13, 20, and 27 from 7-8pm. The first two sessions are for students, and the third session is for parents. Please make every effort for your child to attend on the 13th and 20th, as this day has always been a wonderful experience for our teens. I highly encourage you to attend the session on 27th as well. Flyers with topics and the links to register will be sent to you as soon as they are available.
Since the chastity rally will not be during the school day, Tuesday April 13th will be an online learning day for 8th grade, as it is for the rest of the school. I apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause.

The St. Mary of Magdalene Adoration Chapel opened this past weekend!! If you haven’t had a chance to check it out, you will be amazed at the transformation of the space and how beautiful it turned out! We wanted to make sure that our school community was aware that spots still remain to sign up for a weekly adoration time. If you’re concerned about kids’ schedules or bringing them with you, then Family Sundays may be the perfect time for you to come. There will be material provided to help kids of all ages pray (and remain entertained!), so adoration can become a weekly experience for the whole family!! Here is the link to sign up for a weekly spot – either on your own, or as a family. It’s a big commitment, but one that will have huge returns in the long run!
