MR. VANCE'S NEWS TO USE THIS WEEK
SEPTEMBER 11, 2020
9/11/2020
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today, on this solemn day, September 11th, we take a minute to recall the sacrifices of so many 19 years ago. I hope you will join me in remembering the sacrifices of our first responders on that fateful day. I continue to lift all those who perished that day in prayer.
When making all the plans to re-open during this past summer, we set a milestone at two weeks in school. We felt that we would know if the health precautions put in place were working at two weeks. So far, we feel right about those precautions, as we have no major illness in school at this time. Thank you for everything you are doing at home to keep the disease out of the building; we greatly appreciate it.
In accordance with new regulations from the Ohio Department of Health, we must inform our parents and guardians of the number of students being quarantined and the number of positive exposures. You can check this information via our website at the Covid-19 Resources link
(click here) under the Parents tab on our website. This website will be updated within 24 hours of the school being informed as required by law.
This week, we had a new Wildcat born into the world. We welcome Matilda Faye Timmons, daughter of Samantha and Jonathan Timmons. Mrs. Timmons is one of our intervention specialists in the middle school. Ms. Madalyn Hardig will be the long term substitute while Mrs. Timmons recovers. Ms. Hardig recently completed her student teaching at Cardinal Ritter High School in Indianapolis. She graduated from Marian University and completed her student teaching working with 7th and 8th graders. She is also a 2012 graduate of Saint Ignatius.
May we continue to practice what Saint Ignatius challenged all to do with our lives, "Ad maiorem Dei gloriam," or AMDG, make your lives and actions "for the greater glory of God."
In Christ's Peace,
Kevin Vance
Principal
