From the Office of Steve Kelnhofer, PreK - 8th Grade Principal

Dear Parents,

 

Homecoming week has been a blast so far.  It’s a wonderful opportunity to relationship build between school faculty/staff and students.  By what we wear sparks various opportunities to ask questions and get to know each other at a deeper level!  Thank you for supporting your child in participating in these opportunistic days for relationship building.  

 

This reminds me that we are all called to build a relationship with our Lord.  He is always waiting to be invited into our lives and hearts at a deeper level.  

 

Take some extra time to build a relationship with our Lord this week and with others around you.  Thank them and Him for being part of your life’s journey.  

 

God Bless,

Steve Kelnhofer

 

Love and Logic Tip of the Week

Kids are usually more likely to talk about difficult issues if they are interacting with us over some other fun activity.  Next time your child seems upset, play a game with him or her, start a project, or make something together. You might be surprised what comes out!
