Message from the Principal

Dear Parents/Guardians:

During Catholic Schools Week we celebrate the gift of a catholic education. The theme for this year speaks about "The Dividends for Life." When we acquire the gifts of Morals, Values, Knowledge and Discipline, we have a wonderful foundation to be a successful and life-giving person.

Parents work earnestly to provide for their family and it is our hope that this Catholic education will have many dividends for the future. You as parents are to be commended for wanting to provide a Christ-centered education for your children. We appreciate the sacrifices you make on their behalf. We also are grateful for your support and cooperation and thank God for the gift of your children in our school. We truly enjoy the uniqueness of each one of them.

Our faculty takes great pride in providing a strong adademic education that has Jesus Christ as a model for all their learning. It is our greatest desire that as your children attend Saint Matthew School each day, they capture and live the true meaning of what it means to be a Catholic. We want our students to live meaningful lives and recognize that having a relationship with Christ is ultimately the most important lesson in life. This is truly the most precious and rewarding dividend for life.

If we learn to love and serve the Lord in this life, then we know as promised by God that we will truly be happy with Him in the next!

Happy Catholic Schools Week! May your children always reflect God's love in all they do.

Sister Kathleen Touey I.H.M.
