Principal Notes
It is hard to believe we are leaving for Easter break today. When we return we will be starting 4th
quarter and have a lot of events planned during our last two months. We will be starting IOWA
Assessments on April 14th
. All students in grades 1-7 will participate in these. It is important the
students are here on time and that they have had a good night sleep and a healthy breakfast.
Our VIP/Grandparent Day is scheduled for Friday, April 24, 2015. We will start the day with
Mass at 8:15 AM. We hope you are able to join us for the day. Please see the flyer in the mailer
with more information.
As we prepare to leave for Easter break, I hope you are planning to attend the services planned
here at St. Matthias over Easter weekend. The services are listed below.
On behalf of the staff of St. Matthias Parish and School, we pray you have a wonderful Easter
break.
