We have several new teachers and staff that we would like to welcome for the coming year. Here is a list them: Anastasia Berthold, PreK4 Teacher; Klaudia Leniart, 1st Grade Teacher; Hugo Santiago-Vazquez, Spanish Teacher; Geoff Wilson, Maintenance Supervisor; and Patrick Schultz, Operations Director for the Parish/School. I am excited about our new staff and all that they will offer to our school and students this year.
The air conditioning system was installed in July and is operating well. There are a few issues with the sensor control system and compatibility that we are working out but the overall system is working well.
