Family Advent Mass  December 14 2011
7 pm at Holy Martyrs of Japan Church

Once again this year, as part of our Advent celebrations, we will be having a school Advent family Mass.  This will take place at Holy Martyrs of Japan Church on Wednesday Dec. 14 at 7 pm.  All students will be involved in the Mass and/or the social that we will have afterwards in the church hall.  Mark this date on your calendar.  It will be an opportunity to join together as a school family to celebrate the season of Advent.  

R.A.K.E.

We  have  a R.A.K.E. (Random Act of Kindness Everywhere) program at school.  Staff are looking to find students who perform a random act of kindness.  It might be as simple as holding the door for someone, cheering up a friend, or working with someone who needs help.  We are looking for students who perform acts of kindness without being prompted by an adult.  Student's first name and the action they did is printed on a decal and sent to the office to be recognized.  From there it is posted on our monthly R.A.K.E. bulletin board in our front hallway.  We are proud to recognize the great things our students do on a regular basis, living out the teachings of Jesus.
