New Semester- Rested, Refreshed and Ready!

Greetings and welcome to our 2nd half of the school year!  Can you believe we are already half way through?  I hope everyone had a wonderful break and was able to spend time with family, friends and each other.
     You know, it is so amazing how fast time can go when we are nose down, hard at work, striving for the results we desire both at school and at work.  We must remember to look up, look out and breath each and every day.  Every moment is unique.  There will never be a moment exactly like the one you are in right now.  Take time to make each day count.  Spend it with your children laughing, or creating, praying, singing or just being with them.  I know I have spent countless hours just sitting next to my child while she works on homework, plays a video game or reads.  Silent as those times are, I feel like so much is communicated through her grunts and groans, her hums and foot taps, her giggles and even just hearing her breath.  Be there for your children; in mind, body and spirit.  Everyday is a treasure.
     Holy Spirit is gearing up for our Open House on January 25th from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM.  Please spread the word to any family you know that is looking for a great school!
     This week is Riley week at Holy Spirit.  Ask you child about what we are doing at school to raise money for Riley Kids!
     Awards Day is this Thursday January 15, 2015.  An email was sent with the specific times for each grade.  Come support your students as they are awarded for their many achievements!
     As always, please contact us in the school office if you have any questions or need assistance with MSP, Headmaster, Tutoring or anything else!  We are here for you!
