Congratulations to the class of 2010. We are proud of your accomplishments here at St. Martin School, may you continue your life’s journey with God as your companion. Our eighth grade Graduation will be June 3 at 7:30 p.m.
On May 4, St. Martin of Tours celebrated the Blessed Mother with a traditional May Crowning. All students in the school participated by bringing flowers, praying and honoring Mary. The eighth graders were the honor guard and Teresa Rust had the honor of crowning Mary. The attendants were Claire Luken and Kaitlin Sweeney. On May 25, our kindergarten students dazzled their parents with songs, poems and activities that demonstrated their many talents.
We congratulate and thank third grader Katherine Rust for obtaining the highest individual score for the April-May contest segment on the “Clever Crazes for Kids” website. Katherine will now have the avatar on the program designed after her and she will be the voice of the avatar for the next segment in the fall. She also won $5,000 for our school! We will use this money to fund programs on self-esteem, healthy living, safety, the Peace Education Conflict Resolution, and promoting drug free choices. This prize money has come at a perfect time since the Federal Government recently has stopped funding these programs for the schools. We thank Katherine and “Clever Crazes for Kids” for giving our school the opportunity to continue these programs here at St. Martin.
Throughout this school year we have received support from many people. Many gave their time by chairing or helping with fundraisers, chaperoning fieldtrips, or serving in the cafeteria. Many gave their support by buying our candy bars, magazines, gift cards, working at the bingo, supporting the Walkathon, the Mission Fair, Jump Rope for Heart, the Book Fair, and many other ways that you helped us throughout the year. We thank you so very much for the many hours of service. We could not do this without your help. We will celebrate all of our wonderful volunteers at the last Mass of the school year, June 4 at 8:00 a.m. followed by coffee and doughnuts in Father Mick Hall.
In just a few days our school halls will be silent as our school students begin their summer vacation. We pray that they all have a safe and happy summer.

Prayer For Our Children |
|
Jesus, you asked for the little children to be
brought to you: so we bring our children to you in prayer. We ask you to Bless
them to make them strong and healthy. Fill them with your grace and with your
love. Stay with them as they grow to maturity and help them to learn the
virtues of kindness, humility, peace, patience, love, wisdom, and
understanding. May we as their parents and teachers be good examples for them;
Let their friendships be good and valuable; let their knowledge and love for
you continue to grow day by day. Grant them a happy life-now, and in eternity.
Amen. |
