"Summer" (1893) by Emile Claus
Summer beckons, but we must prayerfully and intentionally maintain strict discipline for the next two and one half weeks. Use time well, ask for help, get organized, study smart (and hard), pray for each other, and do your very best. A few notes for Unit 29:
DUAL CREDIT MEETING: Oxrose is partnering with Benedictine College!
WHAT: Information meeting with Alecia Rolling, Oxrose Registrar, and Sister Linda Herndon, Senior Vice Provost at Benedictine College to answer questions about dual credit.
WHO: All parents who are interested, but especially parents of juniors and seniors next year. Please come and welcome our guest and bring many questions!
WHEN: Thursday, May 8, 7 PM (Central)
WHERE: >>zoom link>>
CLT EXAM on SATURDAY: 11th and 12th graders. See the complete instructions in the CLT course suite. Contact Mrs. Walker with questions.
HOLY FATHER & CONCLAVE: Let us join with the Church around the world in praying for the repose of the soul of Jorge Bergoglio, formerly Pope Francis, and for the conclave of cardinals, gathering to elect the next pope.
SCRIPTURE of the WEEK: Gospel of John 1:1-14. Recited by Adele Radakichenane.
POEM of the WEEK: "Strange Fits of Passion Have I Known." Recited by Sophia Spurlock.
Student and Instructor contributions for "Poem of the Week" are welcome (sung poetry is welcome, too). Send a message to Mr. Rolling with "Poem of the Week," and the title and author of the poem you would like to recite.
PLEASE SPREAD the WORD: Enrollment is off to a great start, please consider sharing information about Oxrose, if you have been pleased with your experience. Word of mouth remains our main means of advertisement. Consider emailing someone who might be interested the link to this write up at First Things or our admissions page. Class visits are very welcome as are conversations about what we do. Thank you for being part of this community!
SUMMER CAMP ENROLLMENT OPEN: Find the link on the Dashboard at right. We will do some preliminary planning before school is out. Summer camp includes the chance to celebrate our graduates--I especially encourage our senior families to consider coming out this year. This will be our 5th year!
