TUESDAY NOTE on May 21, 2019 Principal’s Message: Thank you for a great 2018-2019 school year! Last week was a very busy week at OLL. Our Kindergarten through third grade students did an outstanding job performing Aladdin last Wednesday and Thursday. Congratulations to our talented students, and a very special thank you to Mrs. Michelle Kennedy, Mrs. Rebecca Daigrepont, and the many members of our administration, faculty, staff, and parents who contributed to the overall success of these theatrical performances. All in attendance were truly impressed. In response to its overwhelming popularity and numerous requests, the theatre arts program will expand to fourth grade next year. Each fourth grader will participate in theatre arts twice weekly in the fall, with each class’ semester culminating in a theatrical production. In the spring semester, each fourth grader will have an additional PE class, as well as a visual arts class, instead of theatre arts. Our fifth graders celebrated Colonial Day last Friday. I would like to thank Mrs. Diane Romeo, Colonial Day Committee Chair, and all the teachers, staff, and volunteers who organized this fun event. Our sixth grade students did a wonderful job hosting the school mass on Monday. Congratulations to our sixth grade student Katherine Fortier, who received the Wanda E. Chotin Memorial Scholarship at the school mass. This scholarship is awarded annually to a student going into seventh grade who demonstrates both civic and Christian values. Our second graders will have their Author’s Tea on Tuesday, May 21st, and our third grade students will celebrate Mad Scientist Day on Wednesday, May 22nd.

We would like to end the school year united in prayer to celebrate the life of Gabby Chiasson. Gabby’s determination, spirit, perseverance, sense of humor and incredible faith continue to be an inspiration to us all. Our Memorial Walk for Gabby will take place on Thursday, May 23rd. The donations from our walk will allow us to continue the Gabrielle Chiasson Memorial Scholarship. All donations should be made out to the “Gabrielle Chiasson Memorial Scholarship Fund.” As we prepare to close the school year, we invite you to join us for our Closing Awards Ceremony (including Honor Roll) on Friday, May 24th, at 7:30 a.m. Please note, the last day of school for students will be Friday, May 24th, with dismissal at 11:15 a.m. We will have bus service on May 24th. All the information needed for the 2019-2020 school year will be sent home with your child on Friday, May 24th. Your child will receive their final report card, the 2019-2020 tentative calendar, and other important information. We are happy to inform you that Mrs. Lindsay Bellina has agreed to assist the third grade teachers next year. She will provide support and additional instruction on a part-time basis. Mrs. Bellina brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, and we are excited to have her back in third grade. It is also time to say goodbye to a very special teacher—Mrs. Maureen Moity. We thank Mrs. Moity for her 11 years of service to OLL, and we wish her the best. The faculty and staff wish you and your family a safe and enjoyable summer. On a personal note, I would like to thank you for your continuous support this year. I feel so blessed to be part of this school

If you have any questions, please contact Alicia Dantin at alicia.dantin@gmail.com or 985-630-7279. Thank you to our Chairperson Alicia Dantin and the Uniform Swap Committee for always making this such a great event. Last Friday, our 5th grade students celebrated Colonial Day. Thanks to our Chairpersons Dianne Romeo and Kathi Martin, along with their committee and the many parent volunteers. The day was both a fun and educational experience. The PTCC is offering School Supply Packs for the 2019-2020 school year. By ordering your child’s school supplies in advance, you will save time and also be assured that your child has the right

supplies, in his/her classroom, on the first day of school. The packs will be all inclusive. There will be no need to purchase additional items through the bookstore. If you wish to take advantage of this program, please see the flyer attached to this Tuesday Note. Should you have any questions, contact one of our Committee Chairpersons, Amy Simmons at asimmonslcsw@gmail.com or Kelly Parker at kellygparker@yahoo.com Thank you so much to all of our Committee Chairpersons and Room Parents for your hard work and dedication. All of you have given so much of your love, time, and attention to the needs and activities at Our Lady of the Lake School. Our children are truly blessed by your involvement and commitment. The Lost and Found Committee is asking that you please have your children check the lost and found container, located outside of the school library, for missing sweaters, fleece, and lunch kits. It is very helpful if your child’s full name is written on the tag of these items. The container is checked frequently, and all clearly marked items are delivered to the students. At the end of the school year, all unclaimed items will be donated to the OLL Uniform Swap. Please remember to continue clipping Box Tops and Community Coffee labels throughout the summer. We will resume collections next school year. It is very important that every family in the school clip and save these labels to raise money for our organization. It is an easy way to make a BIG difference! The 2018-2019 PTCC Board would like to thank all of the OLL parents for your support and dedication throughout the school year. We, as a team, have enjoyed working together to make sure that every event and program has been a success. It has been a blessing to serve together to complete our mission of providing excellence in education with the help and the efforts of the Parent Teacher Cooperative Club. As president, I would like to extend a very special Thank You to this year’s board members, Ashley Eilers, Tasha Willoz, Amy Cowley, Jennifer Duvernay, Stacy Simonton, Lindsay Finnan, Carleen Wardle, Rebecca Plaisance, Katherine

Gristina, Laurie Occhipinti, and Jena Westmoreland. Their hard work and generosity of their time and talents helped us have a wonderful year. God bless you and your families, and have a wonderful summer!
