FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK
Dear Blessed Sacrament Families;
I hope you are having a wonderful summer break; camps, vacations,
enrichment programs, and just plain relaxing!
This past year was an amazing year full of learning; for the students and
myself! I have made many notes and we are ready to refuel this summer
to have a fantastic year in 2016-2017.
Last year we began with a new tuition payment system—FACTS—and will
continue with this for years to come. Instructions of re-enrolling or as a
new family are included with this mailer.
This year we will have another wonderful new system called RenWeb.
This is a data system which will organize all our staff and student infor-
mation, parents will be able to access their child’s information, and it will
help create a smoother operation of our school. We are super excited
about learning this new system.
In this month’s newsletter there are some snapshots of our May activities,
and the results of the first school-wide Heifer International Service Pro-
ject. Included in this mailer is the School-Year Calendar, Supply List and
the FACTS enrollment information.
Do not forget to complete your registration; turn in papers, pay fee and
sign up on the payment plan so you can secure your spot and are ready
when school starts.
Blessings, Mrs. Kelly Gabe
