The Weekly Buzz

Good afternoon,
I scheduled this Buzz to send before I took off to New Orleans for my son's wedding, and the focus for Wednesday is on Rome where the Conclave begins today. Let's pray that the cardinals are blessed in their deliberations and we have a new pope soon!
This is the final reminder about the BOOST program. For families seeking tuition assistance for the 2025-2026 school year, please consider the State of Maryland's Broadening Options and Opportunities for Students Today (BOOST) Scholarship Program. The application deadline is this Friday, May 9, 2025, and more information plus the link to the application can be found here: https://marylandpublicschools.org/Pages/boost/index.aspx
When the School Advisory Board met last week, we were able to rely on much feedback from our families and teachers as we worked through revising the Saint Bernadette School 2025-2030 Strategic Plan, so please mark next Wednesday, May 14, as the TAG day awarded by the SAB for your strong survey participation. The SAB meets again next week to finalize and implement this plan.
We are just a week into May, and there's excitement all over school with lots of field trips and special events. A top item this week is the Powder Puff game on Friday night. Come support a fun rite of passage for both the Class of 2025 and our 7th graders. Then, make sure you come back on Saturday night after the 5:00 mass for our International Fair. Many of our students and families will be showcasing their heritage, and the food and crafts should not be missed! Jumping ahead to next week, the band concert is on Tuesday and the 8th grade science fair is on Wednesday!
I hope you enjoy many of the school festivities this month. I'll be back next Tuesday from my son's wedding in time for the band concert, and I'm sure you know how much I enjoy our student musicians. I encourage you to bring your children to both the band and choir concerts this month to get them interested in broadening their artisitic horizons! That's all for now. Please continue to lead your families in prayer for all our community, especially the health needs of our students and staff, and we will do the same for you. Stay strong in the faith.
