Happy Easter! I hope everyone enjoyed their break and feels refreshed and ready to embrace these last 8 weeks of school. As you may have heard through Facebook or at Mass this weekend, Fr. Tim will soon be leaving us for another parish and the next step in his journey toward becoming a pastor. He will be moving to St. Paul's parish in Tampa and will be working with Fr. Bill Swengros. I know I speak for all of us when I say he will truly be missed. A newly ordained priest (next month) will be joining us, Deacon Israel "Izzy" Hernandez, and as soon as immigration cooperates, Fr. Brian Whelan from Ireland will also arrive, hopefully in August. 5th-grade students should be excited as Deacon Izzy is the seminarian they have been praying for the past two years. Please keep all our clergy in your prayers through these transitions.
While we are heading toward the end of the year, things will move quickly and there are many events to keep up with. Here are some dates to keep in mind for the rest of this month:
April 12 - Holy Card Free Dress Day
April 16 - 7th Grade at Nature's Classroom
April 12-13 - Petition forms for Student Council will be made available
April 15 - Petition forms are due (since I will be out of town, Mrs. Robles will give the final approval)
April 16 - Primary elections announced if needed
If we have a primary election:
April 20-21 - Speeches on the Morning Show
April 21 - primary election (grades 3-7)
General election:
April 26-28 - Campaigning and speeches
April 29 - general election (grades 3-7)
April 23 - Marvelous Mustang
April 23 - Science/Earth Day Fair in the FLC
April 26 - Wit and Wisdom presentation and visitors from other schools
April 30 - Jean Day
And then the fun really begins in May!
I will be leaving Tuesday after lunch for St. Anastasia School in Ft. Pierce to do their 7-year Accreditation Review. I leave you all in good hands with Gina and I will be back the following Monday.
Have a wonderful week!
