Dear School Community,

I hope that you and your children share in my excitement that a new year is underway! I am excited to share a few things as we start: we received some new desks that we were able to place in a few of the primary classrooms; we converted our St. Ignatius Room into a school Science Lab for student use; we utilized a grant to purchase planters and add new greenery to our school campus; and we will also be adding a new library in our after school daycare room. You might also have noticed that we are bringing back some of our treasured traditions this year. I think you will be happy to see the direction in which we are moving.

Beyond these new additions we have a talented and dedicated teaching and support staff. Our aim is to provide a safe environment, rigorous curriculum and a faith-filled experience that will lead our students to become leaders and contributing members of our community.

Our theme this year is “Dreaming our Best Future Together.” As we think about the many possibilities to grow in the future, we all need to acknowledge our dreams (big and small) for St. Marianne School. And of course, as we dream, we can begin to prioritize and ultimately realize some of our bigger dreams for the school.

Finally, as we dream our best future together, I encourage you to step forward to assist our school in any way you can. This year we will need coaches for our athletic teams, volunteers for yard supervision, help in the office with the distribution of our newsletter, and much more! Don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you are available to help in a specific area. Together we will dream our best future for St. Marianne School!

Sincerely,
Frank Montejano, Ed.D.
Principal
