Dear OLOL Families,
What a wonderful week of faith, learning, and new experiences at OLOL! From exploring future high school opportunities to growing closer to Jesus, our Jaguars have had so much to celebrate.
Our 8th graders visited Christopher Columbus High School and Our Lady of Lourdes Academy, where they experienced campus life firsthand. These visits offered an exciting glimpse into the next chapter of their educational journey!
This week, we also began our confession schedule, allowing each homeroom to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation during the school day. This special time invites our students to reflect, experience God’s loving forgiveness, and strengthen their relationship with Jesus.
Our 5th graders began the exciting D.A.R.E. program with Officer Alvarado! Through weekly lessons, they will learn how to resist peer pressure and make safe, healthy choices. We are grateful to help our Jaguars build confidence and responsibility.
Today’s Mass was extra special, with 5B participating fully in our celebration. Fr. Yara reminded us that we are all called to live with humility, gentleness, and patience, a beautiful message to carry into our classrooms, our homes, and our daily interactions.
Today also marks the end of the first quarter! We are so proud of the hard work and dedication our students have shown during the beginning of this school year. Their efforts are building a strong foundation for continued growth, and they have certainly earned a restful and enjoyable long weekend!
🐾 Looking Ahead
There will be no school for students on Monday, October 12th, as teachers will be participating in a professional workday.
Please keep our Jaguars in your prayers on Tuesday as they compete in the annual St. Brendan Academic Olympics. We are proud of their preparation and enthusiasm, and we look forward to cheering them on as they represent OLOL!
As we head into the long weekend, may we carry Fr. Yara’s message with us, choosing humility, gentleness, and patience in all that we do.
Thank you, OLOL families, for your continued support and partnership. Together, we help our Jaguars grow in faith, knowledge, and kindness each day.
God is good, and our Jaguars continue to shine! 🐾
