From the Principal

Dear Parents,

What an interesting week we had! We have rescheduled some of the Catholic School events that we missed this week (including rescheduling a previously rescheduled field trip):

Monday, Feb. 4th: 3:05-4:30 Afterschool Practice for Talent Show Participants
Tuesday, Feb. 5th: Pajama Day

  • 8:30 Spelling Bee
  • 9:00 Blanket Making
  • 1:30 All-School Bingo

Wednesday, Feb. 6th: 

  • Middle School Cascade Mountain Field Trip
  • 6:30 Talent Show

The Medieval Faire for Middle School has also been rescheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 13th.

Thank you to all who attended our kick-off Mass and Family Fun Day & Open House at the school. We had a great time, and really showed off the school to many new families. We hope you had fun!

Returning families make sure to submit your enrollment for next year by Feb. 8th. After Feb. 8th, the registration fee goes up to $200, priority enrollment for current students/parishioners ends and we open our enrollment to families that are not current IHM families.

The IHM Benefit is coming! Please mark your calendar for Friday, Feb. 22nd. This is the Parish & Schools biggest fundraiser of the year! Bidding opens on Feb. 11th for the silent auction at www. biddingforgood.com/ihmbenefit. We look forward to your continued support!

Catholic Schools provide a firm foundation for the growth and development of your child. Pray for a year filled with faith and learning. Let us be a community of service to one another and to our world.

God Bless,
Callie Meiller, Principal
