Thank you to all Catholic school administrators who are working so hard this summer, including the team at OLW
I am so incredibly proud of the work of our outstanding @ChiCathSchools principals! They are demonstrating such grace and wisdom in intensely challenging times. We are truly blessed by your leadership! #WeAreCalled @archchicago @chicagocatholic @NCEATALK

Christian Family Movement is an important adult ministry at OLW. CFM promises to provide meaningful discussion, prayer, comfort, support & smiles during this uncertain time. It meets 1x/month and because of the pandemic will meet virtually this year. We hope you will join.
We appreciate this advice from the Director of Social and Emotional Learning for the Office of Catholic Schools on preparing your students for the start of the new school year.
We miss our students! The Health & Safety Team and the Academics Team have been working hard on the plan to reopen OLW safely on August 19. Parents should watch for an update at the end of this week. Things will be look different, but OLW is still the same great school.
There are some printed flyers in the Reading Challenge cooler as well as at Comet's.
Summer and cold treats go hand in hand! Come to Comet's Custard in RM tonight from 3-9pm for a family outing and they will donate 10% of your sale back to OLW. Bring the printed flyer which you can find on the school website.
