Dear Parents,
Merry Christmas to you and to your family. Thank you for your continued support of our school. Please contact me at any time with comments, questions, or concerns. I am here for you!
Here is a Christmas prayer that your child may recite on Christmas Day, perhaps at dinnertime. Make sure he or she can practice it first:
Merry Christmas Dear Lord, We thank you for the blessings of family, for the gift of time to rest for the delight in the eyes of loved ones, for the food we eat, and the roof over our heads. We praise your name. Amen.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Christmas food drive to benefit a Cicero food pantry (see photo)!

Friday, December 23 - Sunday, January 8: Christmas vacation; classes resume on Mon., Jan. 9.
