A Note From Our Principal
Dear OLV Family,
October was a beautiful month here at school. The weather finally cooled, we were grateful to get some much needed rain, and the leaves are starting to turn bright colors. Our virtue of the month was responsibility, and that manifested itself in many different ways across the grades and throughout the month...

Family Thanksgiving Lunch
Come join us as we kick off the Thanksgiving holiday by breaking bread together as a school community. Please refer to the cafeteria web page for details about the menu and to place your order. Orders must be placed through the cafeteria website by Sunday, 11/10. It is very important when you order that you add yourself as an additional student and that you include the teacher and the grade. This way the cafeteria will be prepared to serve both you and your child(ren) at the same time.
Congratulations to our middle school students who are part of the JCCHS Middle School 8th Grade Volleyball Team for their Southern Conference Tournament Championship!

October Virtue of the Month... Prayerfulness
The virtue for November is prayerfulness. Here's what the focus will be by age group:
Grades PreK-2: Fold your hands when you pray.
Grades 3-5: Maintain a spirit of stillness with your body, mind, and heart while praying; make visits to the Chapel; create a place of prayer in your home.
Grades 6-8: Foster a spirit of interiority in your body, mind, and heart; participate in the sacrements regularly; make a place of prayer in your home.
The parish-wide Food Festival and Fun Zone was enjoyed by all. A huge thank you to Michele Mickwee and Marie Santamour for organizing the PTO Fun Zone. We are grateful for the volunteers who stepped in to help with games and the families that donated candy for prizes.
