A Note from Sister Elizabeth
August 18, 2008
Dear Parents,
Peace and all
good!
Welcome to our
2008-2009 school year. Cead Mile Failte, a hundred thousand
welcomes to our new families and students. May St. John Vianney
Parish and School be your Home away from Home.
As we begin our
school year I know that you are filled with great hope and
excitement awaiting all that will unfold for your children. I
can assure you that we are here to create the safest and the
most innovative learning environment for each student. We are
your partners in education and together we can make it happen.
Because each child is God’s special gift to us, he/she will be
treated with the utmost care, respect, and love throughout the
year.
Please know that
we are here for you and your children. May you be blessed as
you begin this new year.
Parents’ Pledge
Dear God, I thank You for the
gift of this child to raise, this life to share, this mind to
help mold, this body to nurture, and this spirit to enrich.
Let me never betray this
child’s trust, dampen this child’s hope, or discourage this
child’s dreams.
Help me dear God to help this
precious child become all You mean him/her to be.
Let Your grace and love fall
on them like gentle breezes and give them inner strength and
peace and patience for the journey ahead.
Maria Wright Edelman
May the Christ in you reach out
to touch the Christ in all you meet. May God bless you and keep
you in His care.
Sr. Elizabeth
