I encourage you to take a few minutes to browse through their website. You will be truly amazed at the number of excellent courses and devotional material there. At first it may appear overwhelming because there is so much available! But just browse at first then choose which resources you want to use. For now, I encourage you to go to the "Making a Spiritual Plan for Lent" which is on the opening page at this time. There are also numerous resources for teens and children as well. Our parishioners can access all of this material FOR FREE and UNLIMITED as a result of our parish subscription. And it is all available in Spanish as well by simply clicking "Español" in the tool bar. I would be grateful for your input on this new endeavor and to know if you find it valuable or not.

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY
2021-2022 SCHOOL STUDENT NON-
DISCRIMINATION POLICY
The school, mindful of its mission to be a witness to
the love of Christ for all, admits students regardless
of race, color, national origin, and/or ethnic origin
to all rights, privileges, programs, and activities
generally accorded or made available to students at
the school.
The school does not discriminate on the basis of
race, color, disability, medical condition, sex, or
national and/or ethnic origin in the administration
of educational policies and practices, scholarship
programs, and athletic and other school-
administered programs, although certain athletic
leagues and other programs may limit participation
and some archdiocesan schools operate as single-
sex schools. While the school does not discriminate
against students with special needs, a full range of
services may not always be available to them.
Decisions concerning the admission and continued
enrollment of a student in the school are based
upon the student's emotional, academic, and
physical abilities and the resources available to the
school in meeting the student's needs.
