Angelic Attitude Awards

Nothing motivates me more than recognizing our wonderful students who get caught being a "holy angel." It makes me stop and realize that we really have a great bunch of kids here in this school, and this is the best place to learn! Congratulations to the following students: Anneke N., Molly S., Isabella B., Jacob J., William Z., David B., Jared F., Loretta E., and Austin T.

Getting Ready for High School

It's hard to believe that we're already gearing up for our 8th graders to venture off to high school. Yesterday, the four Catholic high schools in our area (Aurora Central, Benet, Marmion, and Rosary) were here to showcase their prospective high schools. Throughout all the presentations, I marveled at how each one prepares students for the next step in their lives and always with Christ at the center of their educational programs. And again, I was humbled by the sacrifice of parents who make Catholic education a possibility for their children.

Angelic Attitude Awards

One of the most pleasurable aspects of my job has been awarding Angelic Attitude Awards. These awards are given to students who have made good choices and gone beyond normal good behavior. In essence they have been caught being a "holy angel." The really fun part for me is calling the parents to share the good news. I'm usually met with, "Oh no. I thought they'd done something wrong." No, this is something very very right. I am so proud of these kids!

So far, these students have received this honor: Leah A., Bella B., Michael C., Emme F., David B., Ella E., Samantha M., Aidan K., Jack T., Morgan W., Jordyn S., Cole R., Katlyn S., Quincy K., Joey C., Daniel M., and Daniel N. I'm hoping to have even more "holy angels" in the future.
