Newsletter for January 18th

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Staff,
Today we did a lockdown practice.  Students and staff did a great job following the procedure. As required, we keep a regular schedule of practicing the emergency operations procedures for not only lockdown drills but fire drills but also tornado drills.   It keeps the students and staff alert to the procedures. 

Also, we started our rewarding middle school friendship groups this week.  Equally enjoyable was our first of eight Tuesday FAST family fun nights. We look forward to more good times together. 

Thank you, everyone, for sending the items and gifts for our auction. There are so many beautiful gifts and items for the auction.   It will certainly be a blessed time for everyone. 

We are off school Monday, Martin Luther King Day for records day for the teachers. The coming week will be full of assessment as we are testing students in Math, reading and English Language Arts. Please be sure your students get a good breakfast each morning to get their minds ready for the challenge.
This coming Thursday, January 24th at 6:30 we will hold a school meeting in the social hall to discuss the Genesee Country Catholic schools survey results related to our school.  At the meeting, St John Vianney school priorities, plans, expectations, and investments will be discussed.  Father Tom Firestone, Pastor, Kasey Cronin, GCCS director, myself and our business manager, Tom Pastula will participate in the presentation, Please be sure to set aside time to attend this important meeting.  There will be a flyer coming home this week with specifics regarding the evening agenda.
God bless each of you!  Have a safe and enjoyable weekend.
