 In the busyness of my new role as principal of St. Mary’s School, I must constantly remind myself about the power of gratitude. Taking a moment to recognize all we have to be grateful for opens my eyes to how blessed we truly are and washes over the hurried pace with peace and contentment…
This week, I am feeling grateful for our Hot Lunch Program managed by Director of Food Service Tanya Kval. It is such a blessing to have nutritious meal choices lovingly served by Mrs. Kval, Mrs. McKenna, and the dedicated parent volunteers who arrive each day to help. Parents who choose our Hot Lunch Program for their children can be assured that students will have enough choices to fill up with brain fueling, delicious calories at lunch thanks to the careful planning of each month’s menu. And Mrs. Kval works hard, shopping locally whenever possible, to manage expenses so school lunch remains affordable for all. She is also a great team player, creatively connecting food choices with special days around the school. This is just one more way we are taking care of our students’ minds, bodies and souls at St. Mary’s School! While I am on the subject of gratitude, I hope you have received your personal invitation to our first ever Gratitude Gala on March 21st. I can’t wait to share the evening with our honorees, our past and present faith leaders, faculty and staff, and all of you. St. Mary’s School is a special place where we go Above and Beyond in all we do, and this evening of gratitude will prove it to you. Tickets are now on sale through the parish website at www.stmarysl.org.
We're so excited to offer even more!! Our NEW morning Preschool Plus option is an enriching opportunity to extend preschool learning in a multi-age classroom. Daily themes will connect play based learning in faith, literacy, math, technology, Spanish, music, and art. Students will eat lunch together before joining the afternoon preschool class, entering childcare* or going home. *more information will be available at the OPEN HOUSE!  $2,750.03!!! Thank you for participating in the National Day of Giving - Many Gifts, One Nation drive to support St. Mary’s School. Your generosity helps sustain innovative teaching, hands on opportunities and other ways for us to soar above and beyond at our school! We are grateful to God for your donations. We know we are fortunate to receive a Catholic education so we can grow in faith and knowledge each day to become the church and community leaders of the future. We ask for your continued prayers for the growth and success of St. Mary’s School. With grateful hearts🙏 #LoveMyCatholicSchool #WeAreSaintMarysCatholicSchool #SoaringWithTheSaints #CSW20 St. Mary's School, Spring Lake, Michigan
