Principal Message

Hello STM families,

As we continue through the season of Lent, I would like to share a prayer for you and your family to enjoy before a meal this weekend. God Bless!

Almighty and Everlasting God,
You have given the human race
Jesus Christ our Savior as a model of humility.
He fulfilled Your Will by becoming Man
And giving His life on the Cross.
Help us to bear witness to You
By following His example of suffering
And make us worthy to share in His Resurrection.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son.

Amen.

Don't forget that this Saturday we spring ahead one hour. Remind our students to try and get the extra sleep you need so you can learn on Monday.

Tuesday is Pi Day! A chance to recognize the all important irrational number of Pi (3.14). We will be having a fun competition for each of our classes. The student that can recite Pi the longest in each class will win a slice of pie. Better start memorizing!!!

Friday is St. Patrick's Day. We encourage all our students to wear some GREEN.

A reminder to all our grade nine students that you need your high school registration sheets completed, signed by a parent/guardian and in our school for Wednesday. FX and Romero will be coming to our school to complete your registrations. Those students that have there St. Joe's registration forms, return them to Mr. Myskiw. Notice it will be first thing in the morning; don't come late or you will need to go to the school on your own time.

God Bless!

Kevin Myskiw

EAP at STM

Hello families, This is a special year because we have many interested EAP students in our grade 8 and grade 9 classes. Therefore, we placed them into multiple classes per grade level. Our teachers are committed to enrich our motivated students by enhancing their knowledge development, character development, and community engagement throughout the school year.
