As this school year comes to a close, I would like to thank the entire Seton Community for all that you have contributed to the school.  Parents volunteer, work hard, and make huge monetary sacrifices. Staff members serve, teach and guide nearly 24 hours a day.  And students, well they make it all worthwhile:  being with them and for them is our best blessing.
I especially want to thank the staff members who will not be returning to Seton next year: Marge Bergeron, Emily Camus, Sr. Maria Cincotta, Elizabeth Ellison, Courtney Hunt, Lydia Mark, Diane Nicholl, Patty Perez, Kristen Rundell, Rosemary Scott, Jamie Teigen and of course our great principal, Sharon Pasterick.  Sr. Maria, Marge Bergeron, Patty Perez and Sharon Pasterick are retiring from Seton.  Emily Camus, Courtney Hunt and Diane Nicholl are moving.  Lydia Mark is accepting a new position in a different field. Elizabeth Ellison, Kristen Rundell, Jamie Teigen and Rosemary Scott will be increasing their stay at home to take care of their children.  No one ever leaves Seton without blessing us with their gifts, and we hope that we, in turn, have been part of their blessings.
Have a wonderful summer, everyone!  See you in August unless you come to visit us,which we would love!

One more thing: Let us please welcome Elise O'Meara who joined our Admissions Staff this week. Elise is a graduate of Seton and comes to us with many talents and a wonderfully bright, warm, sincere smile!
