My courses

by Mrs. Alecia Rolling.  

St. Richard Gwyn, Father, Teacher, and Martyr, d. 1584

This week the liturgy includes a wonderful assortment of saints.  Be sure to read up on and appeal to a few.  A great way to prepare for the coming feast of All Saints.

 

Saints Ursula, Hilarion, John Paul II, John of Capistrano, Richard Gwyn (and the Welsh Martyrs), Chrysanthus, and Crispian, 

Pray for Us.

UNIFORM REMINDER: Students are reminded that, during class time, they must appear well-groomed and wearing a collared shirt (or approved equivalent).  In the cooler seasons, a sweater or jacket may be worn.  Hoodies are not allowed!

TESTING CONTINUES:  We have more midterm exams this week in all Latin, some Comp & Grammar, and some Empirical Science courses.  Prioritize exams, work prayerfully, and endeavor to achieve excellence for the Glory of God!

ALL SAINTS DAY FESTIVITIES: Next week, in UNIT 9, we celebrate All Saints Day on Sunday, November 1st.   We pause, as of old, to honor the glorious saints and thank God for the gift of the community we share with the Church Triumphant.

1. COSTUME CONTEST: Dress as your baptismal or confirmation saint and submit a photo to win a prize and House Points.  Details in the League!
