Dear San Felipe de Neri Families,
Lenten Season
Our most holy season, the Lenten season has begun and you could tell yesterday that children were planning on creating a change in their lives-no pop, no candy, will go to mass! Thank you! You are having valuable conversations with them as their teachers are also. When we work in unison, our faith loves and atmosphere improves immensely.
8th Grade Retreat The Pan de Vida Retreat is scheduled for March 30-April 1. All 8th Graders are expected to attend this weekend of spiritual renewal.
The menu on Fridays will reflect our new Lenten liturgical season also. Sometimes we will only have one entrée and it may be cheese pizza instead of pepperoni. Kindly review the March Lunch Calendar.
Fourth through eighth graders will be celebrating Reconciliation with Father Tom on March 22 and 23. Third graders will receive their First Reconciliation March 3 at 10 am in the main church.
Stations of the Cross will be lead by the fifth through eighth graders on Fridays in the gym during Lent.
Parent Conferences
Friday, March 2 is our optional parent conference afternoon. If you feel you would like to set up a conference, kindly give the school a call immediately and we will try to accommodate your request.
Susan Murphy, Superintendent of School, Archdiocese of Santa Fe
Ms. Murphy will be visiting our school community. Please welcome her! It is always a pleasure to share the good things about our faith development and academic accomplishments.
Book Fair
During the week of March 5-9, our school will host the spring Book Fair. You may wish to purchase some special Easter Gifts.
Uniforms
Polos are on sale if you need to purchase some new ones. Thanks for filling out the on-line survey!
May your Lenten journey be filled with prayer and good works.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Nancy Suedkamp
