Dear Parent/Guardian,

While he was delivering God’s word to them,
some people arrived bringing a paralyzed man to him.
Mark 2:3

As part of our January Virtues Program our students are learning about the virtue of cooperation. As adults we know cooperation is the process of working together to the same end. We have seen positive results of this process in our school community since September.

Our children need consistent formation in this virtue from the adults in their world. In school they learned by cooperating and following the safety precautions, we have been able to keep them safe. At home families can use examples of obeying parents, sharing with siblings, and doing chores willingly as ways to show cooperation at home.

The above Bible quote is an example of the good that comes from cooperation when we work toward a shared mission. Our shared mission of a full time Catholic Education will result in a faith formation that will give our children the foundation they need to navigate life knowing that God is always with them no matter what the circumstances and that a faith community supports them.
