Dear Parents and Guardians,

Students have been busy this Advent season as we lit the second purple candle in preparation.  Grades 3-8 participated in Advent Reconciliation last Wednesday.

St. Nicholas visited students' classrooms on Monday.  On Tuesday, NJHS prepared our all-school Mass for the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.  National Junior Honor Society candidates were inducted at the conclusion of this Mass. 

Tuesday also kicked off the Jubilee Year of Mercy.  We are asked how we can show others the mercy of God.  Our everyday actions should authentically reflect God's mercy.  All of us are called to embrace and reflect mercy this year! 

Thank you to the families who have already re-enrolled for the 2016-17 school year. As a reminder, please click HERE to re-enroll, if you have not done so already.  Our goal is to have 100% enrollment, and spots are filling up fast!

We hope to see you at our Christmas Program in the church on Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m.!
It's a great day to be a Cardinal!

In peace,

Lauren Lewandowski
St. Cletus School, Principal
