School is starting on Tuesday. As I walk around the middle school building and look at the classrooms still in disarray, it is hard not to feel a little bit of added stress. There are lots of changes happening here and for reasons out of my control, the school year will not start as I would like. But it is exciting to see the new windows in the classrooms. Framing in the new office area is starting soon and it will be fun to watch that transformation as well. As I sit here thinking about all of the chaos and stress, I can’t help but to reflect on what is really important. We are growing and improving our facilities. We have 106 students, seventeen of which are in first grade that will walk through the doors on Tuesday. This will be the first time the school has had over 100 students since I started this job thirteen years ago. That is a great feeling. The school is making improvements to its facilities. The new windows in the middle school building add extra natural light to the classrooms and will be more energy efficient as well. We will be adding a conference room – our first ever. We will also be able to give the staff an actual teachers’ lounge and work area instead of having to use a classroom. Some of the improvements will take time to get completed but at least they are underway. The students and staff can eagerly watch with anticipation as the project progresses throughout the school year. These things are all exciting and will make for a wonderful facility, but at the end of the day what makes the school a great place to learn and work are the people that come through the door. We have top notch staff members that will teach the students no matter what the rest of the building looks like. We have wonderful students who come from great families that will all show great patience as we continue our improvements. The two most important parts of our school are the staff and the students. We are blessed in both of those areas. This year we are doing something a bit different as we start school. On Thursday, August 29, after the 8:15 a.m. Mass, Father Dennis will lead the students and staff in praying over each other. Then he will lead us in a procession over to the school where he will bless each classroom. Anyone is welcome to join us for this special event. I can’t think of a better way to start off the year than asking God for his special blessings and graces upon our students, staff, and the rooms where they will spend so much of their day. If you are unable to join us, please join us in prayer. God is always listening.
