Dear Lancer Families,
As the 2nd Trimester draws to a close, please keep encouraging your children to do their best and work hard in their studies. The 2nd trimester officially ended today, and Report Cards will be available on the FACTs Family Portal on Wednesday, March 5th.
We will also celebrate Ash Wednesday next week and begin the Liturgical Season of Lent. All are welcome to come celebrate our All School Liturgy on March 5th. We will also begin attending the Stations of the Cross on Friday, March 7th at 1:15pm in the Church. All are welcome to attend these events as well.
Finally, best of luck to all our boys and girls Basketball teams as they begin Playoffs this weekend. You’ve all worked hard this season and we know you’ll make us proud in the postseason!
Make it a GREAT day, Lancers!!!
