Week of June 2-6, 2025
Principal Message
As we step into the first week of June, it’s hard to believe that only three and a half weeks remain in our school year. These final days are filled with excitement, celebration, and a strong sense of accomplishment as our students, staff, and families reflect on a year of growth, learning, and faith.
June brings a flurry of activities—field trips, final projects, school celebrations, and year-end liturgies. Each of these moments is not just a wrap-up of academic work, but a culmination of our journey together as a faith-filled learning community. Amidst the busyness, we are reminded to pause and give thanks for the blessings of this past year.
We recognize that these closing weeks are an opportunity to live out our faith in action: showing gratitude, extending kindness, and finishing the race set before us with perseverance and joy (Hebrews 12:1). It is also a time to lift up one another in prayer as students transition to new grades and some families prepare for new beginnings.
Thank you for your continued partnership, your prayers, and your presence in our school community. May the Holy Spirit guide us through these final weeks and prepare our hearts for a restful, joyful summer ahead.
Mrs. Carr-Jeschke & Mrs. McNamee

Student Pick Ups/Drop Offs
When dropping off/picking up students, please use the designated drop off zones. These are 96 Ave (in front of the school) and 145 Street (the west side of the school).
Please DO NOT use the staff parking lot for student drop offs or pick ups. There are a lot of blind spots and staff vehicles, along with Division vehicles, coming in and out of the lot. This creates a very unsafe environment for students to be walking through.
Please choose safety over convenience and use marked cross walks and drop off zones to ensure students arrive safely to and from school.
Thank you for your cooperation!
