Growing Together @ STL
June 27, 2025
It's a beautiful and powerful tradition
Endings almost always hold heaviness, tears and sadness with the goodbyes. God reminds us of the hope we have in our lives. New beginnings and new adventures cannot happen without first having endings.
It is a beautiful tradition to sing and pray a blessing on all of those leaving our St. Luke family, whether they are moving onto high school (congratulations grade 8s!), or moving away, once a St. Luke Mustang, always a St. Luke Mustang. You are always welcome back!
Thank you for an amazing year!
Thank you to our families, parents, volunteers, staff, community members and students for making 2024-2025 school so incredibly amazing!
All of us at St. Luke Catholic School wish you a fantastic summer filled with God's many blessings!
We look forward to seeing you in the fall!
As we look forward to welcoming our learners back to St. Luke Catholic School this fall, we would like to share details about our staggered entry plan for Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and Grades 1–3.
“Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.”
—Proverbs 22:6
To ensure a smooth, positive, and supportive beginning to the school year, we will be using a staggered entry process for our Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 3 students. This approach allows students to ease into their new classroom routines, meet their teacher in smaller groups, and build early connections with their classmates. It also gives staff more time to guide students through expectations, routines, and classroom spaces in a personalized and meaningful way.
This gentle start is especially beneficial for young learners, helping to reduce first-day anxiety and build a sense of belonging from day one. It supports our goal of creating a welcoming, Christ-centered environment where every child feels seen, safe, and ready to learn.
