St.Francis de Sales Catholic School

Dear Parents,

As we reach the end of another school year, I want to take a moment to express my appreciation for your unwavering support. Our dedicated teachers and staff have worked tirelessly to ensure that each student receives an exceptional Catholic education—one that nurtures both the mind and the spirit.

To the families who will be moving on from our community, please know that your presence and contributions have made a difference. You will be missed, and we wish you all the very best in your future endeavors. May God’s blessings follow you wherever you go.

On behalf of our teacher's and staff, we wish each of you a restful, joy-filled summer. May it be a time of relaxation, adventure, and cherished moments with loved ones.

Respectfully,

Mrs. Carol Wilson

Principal

PRAYER: to talk and listen to God.

We all know the power of prayer - it is an integral part of our faith and all that we do throughout the day. Our children are comfortable with traditional prayers and participate in spontaneous prayer. Our students also know that they can pray anywhere and that God listens to the prayers of children first. There is no limit to the ways in which you and your family can pray together too!

May the words of Saint Paul inspire you and your children to pray always: "Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing." (2 Thessalonians 5:16-17)
