Message from the desks of your Principal and Vice Principal:
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Our staff and students will be celebrating a number of special activities during our Catholic Education Week the first week in May. We have many events planned that will help our student body and staff, proclaim the gift of Catholic Education. The theme this year for Catholic Education Week is ‘Walking in the Light of Christ.”
Our Second Semester Parent Teacher Interviews for our Gr. 9 -12 students were recently held on Thursday, April 26th. We thank the many parents for their support and positive feedback on the efforts by our school staff.
We are also so pleased for our school community to have recently received The Tri-Valley Conservation Environmental Award. This marks St. Thomas Aquinas as the top high school in the Ottawa area recognizing our environmental stewardship efforts for our school and community.
The staff and Mrs. McHenry and I invite our school community members to join us at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic High School for our Blessing of our new Grade 7 & 8 Wing with Archbishop Pendergast. This takes place on Wednesday May 9th at 6:00 p.m. in the Atrium followed by refreshments and a tour of the Grade 7 & 8 Science Fair Projects in our new wing.
Our Homework Club will continue to run Tuesday and Thursday afternoons to support our students in their academic studies from 2:45 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in our beautiful library. Students are reminded to sign up for late buses for this learning opportunity.
Our Catholic Church’s intention for the month of May is that the initiatives which defend and uphold the role of the family may be promoted within society. We ask for prayers that we play a lead role teaching our students these lessons of our Lord.
Yours in Catholic Education,
Richard James, Principal & Eva McHenry, Vice Principal
