FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day weekend with family and friends. Over the past two-and-a-half weeks our educators and coaches have explained and modeled our JPII expectations in the classroom and on the athletic fields and courts. When we return to school on Tuesday, we are well into 1st quarter and it is time to dig in and focus on the tasks at hand. Our students are prepared and set up for success and we are looking forward to a great year! St. John Paul II...pray for us! In Christ, Mrs. Stanley |
