“With Christ as the center of your life, you will never be disappointed .”

~Pope Francis

 

Message from Principal Angie Krauss:

Dear Families,

As I take a moment to reflect, I am grateful for all the God-given gifts our students display. This weekend at the Nazareth Guild Gala our drama club performed and shared their love of acting and the gospel message. In the classrooms, I see our students striving to learn and expand their minds to be prepared for the 21st-century. Our extracurricular sports activities also provide students with an opportunity to grow and challenge their physical limits.

 

Daily I see our staff and students striving to fulfill our mission and be Christlike leaders in our community. Today at Monday morning prayer we talked about characteristics a Christian displays. We brainstormed ways others would know by our actions that we are Christ followers. I encourage you to take a moment this evening to ask your child their answer and support them in their Christian walk.

 

I hope you have a very blessed week.

 

In Christ’s Peace,

Angie Krauss
