Annunciation B.V.M. School

Where Faith and Knowledge Meet

Sunday, January 29, 2012 | Signin | Register

Welcome to Annunciation B.V.M. School

We welcome a new year and look forward to the last half of the school year. At the end of the month we celebrate Catholic Schools' Week and invite you to join us in the many activities we have planned. We have much to celebrate and be thankful for in our school - from our wonderful students to our dedicated teachers and hard working volunteers. When students enter our doors, they are blessed to enter a culture lit by faith and love where they can find a community of friendship and support to both encourage and challenge them. I truly believe one can sense this culture when you spend some time at Annunciation BVM School.

And to start the year off right, we share with you an original composition by our second grade class who will be preparing to receive the sacrament of Reconciliation.

The 10 Commandments of Second Grade

Listen to your teachers

Help others

Obey your parents and others

Share and use good manners

Always do your best

Be kind, polite, friendly, honest and responsible

Treat others as you want to be treated

Follow directions

Clean up after yourself

Welcome others

Amy McNeill

Principal

Our virtues for the month of January are perseverance and cooperation. Check out our paper tree as you enter school. It was decorated by 4th grade students on how they display these virtues.
