Taking stock of 2007, we are very appreciative of all the gifts we have been given.  We are grateful for the time, talents, and treasures shared by each of you to make Gross Catholic such a wonderful place. 

With the onset of the New Year, we feel a renewed sense of purpose and commitment to the future of our school and our students, parents, alumni, faculty and all the members of our Cougar Family.

Looking towards 2008, we renew our commitment to Catholic education and specifically to the children you have entrusted to us.  Our Strategic Plan, reviewed annually, provides us with the focus we need to build upon our strengths and improve upon our weaknesses.  Task forces established in the areas of Spiritual Life, Enrollment, Financial Management, Student Achievement, Athletics and Activities, and Technology, continue to work diligently to accomplish our goals and objectives. 

Over the years, our faculty, staff and administrators have made many improvements and changes in programs that greatly benefit our students and the education we provide.  With hard work, your support and God's graces, we will succeed in our mission "to develop Christian leaders through educational excellence."

I hope that you and your family have a wonderful holiday season and that your New Year is the very best year of all.  Thank you for your support and may God bless you.

Sincerely,

Beckie Cleveland, President
