Good afternoon,
 
On Monday of this week, we had visitors in our building observing in our classrooms in alignment with the Archdiocese of Chicago's AdvancEd accreditation process.  The purpose of this system-wide school improvement review process is to assess the school's commitment to continuous improvement and quality assurance and provide evidence of ongoing work towards the Arch's and our school's goals.
 
Friday marked the last day of trimester 2 for grades 1-8.  Report cards will be sent home on Friday.  Don't forget to register for your student's parent-teacher conference on Friday, March 11.
 
The auction is coming together!  We are looking forward to a fun-filled evening of fundraising on Saturday.  See you on campus!
Blessings!
