How beautiful it would be if each of you, every evening, could say: Today at school, at home, at work, guided by God, I showed a sign of love towards one of my friends, my parents, an older person! How beautiful!

Dear Parents/Guardians,
Here we are already in September. Our first weeks of school have gone very well. A very big "Thank You" to all who have helped with the various events of August?New Family Dinner, Home and School Meeting, Scrip Sales, and Campus Cleanup. All of your help, dedication, and support are greatly appreciated.
September's calendar is another full and busy one. The eighth grade will be very busy this month as they will be celebrating the first Virtue Mass, their F.O.C.U.S. mass, and their retreat at Camp Lookout. This is just the beginning of a very busy year for them.
On September 13th, school will dismiss at 11:30 (there will be no lunch served nor after care) to provide time for travel to Sevierville for the Eucharistic Congress celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Diocese of Knoxville. Friday night is devoted to the youth with a youth mass, a chat with the Bishop and Cardinal Rigali, and a youth concert. Plus they will have breakout sessions on Saturday. The adult sessions begin Saturday morning with prayer and breakout sessions throughout the day. It ends with mass that evening. I, personally, am looking forward to the keynote address by Cardinal Dolan.
Pictures of students in uniform and Fall sports will be taken on Monday, September 16th. On September 18th, we will have our $1.00 out of uniform day, and on the 19th is our first
Chick-Fil-a Spirit Night.
Our Fall sports are off to a good start. The schedule of games and meets are in the Fanfare weekly; we would love to have everyone in attendance to cheer on our students.
As always, I very much appreciate all you support. Have a great September.
God bless,
Jeri McInturff
