WORDS OF WISDOM
Dear Class of 2020,
Your last year in junior high began anticipating Confirmation, May Crowning,
and Graduation. We do have many good memories of Cotillion, Mardis Gras Parade
with your Buddies, and Irish Dancing.
And then it all changed. COVID 19. This crisis has given us all an opportunity to be our
best selves. And many of you have done just that. Virtues of patience,
empathy, understanding, and kindness became goals we had to lean on as we dealt with
our families and our friends. You had to apply skills of creativity, perseverance,
diligence, determination and hard work to your education as online learning became your
new normal.
As I write this, we do not know how your 8th grade year will end. No matter. Be resilient
and be compassionate so that at the end of the day you will see yourself as a better
person having gone through it. However, your 8th grade year resolves, armed with these
virtues and skills you will be well prepared for high school and beyond.
Always remember, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4:13
God Bless You.
Love,
Mrs. Eileen Sullivan
In life, always be the best person you can possibly be. Be a disciple of Christ!
Enjoy the journey…
