For the Second Sunday of Advent, Jesus-Mary School prepared the liturgy. Our musicians welcomed a new member when a 6th grader joined our 1st grade teacher on trumpet. Could this be the seed of a music program?
A BRIGHTER LIBRARY
Since the roof on our library needed to be replaced, we also added to the height of the roof which, as you can see, makes a much brighter library for our students.
Thanks go to our present and visiting, former volunteers who repainted after construction.
