On Monday, October 13th, all Archdiocesan Faculty (Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12) gathered at Bishop Gorman High School for a day of prayer, dialogue, and a key note presentation regarding Inclusion Solutions presented by Colleen McCoy and Crystal Brooks. All faculty thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to come together with colleagues from across the Archdiocese. We also had the opportunity to honor faculty members celebrating milestones in their years of service to the Archdiocese of Las Vegas.


Congratulations to Ms. Linda Studdard (15 years), Mrs. Susie Villanueva (30 years),

and Mrs. Kelly Thomas (45 years)! We are grateful for their years of service!

COMMON SENSE: To use good judgment.


Common sense is behaving in a practical and sensible way. For example, wearing warm clothes when it is cold outside; going inside to stay dry when it starts raining; and before stepping out into traffic – looking both ways.


Be practical and show us how you use your common sense this week!
