"Life Is the Bubbles Under the Sea!

WHAT A SHOW! We are so proud of our 68 thespians and stage crew for presenting such a MAGICAL musical production of The Little Mermaid JR. (Tune in to St M's Media Gallery later this week to see more amazing pics from the performances.)
SPECIAL THANKS to Director Dawn Childs, Associate Directors Wells Bridgforth, Julia Bryan-Diehl, and Linnea Harding-Scudder, and to ALL the amazing faculty, parent, and alumni volunteers who shared their gifts of time, talent, and creativity to bring the set, costumes, sound, and playbill to life. Applause, applause!

It's Teacher Appreciation Week!


St M's amazing and talented faculty and staff ignite the imagination, nurture young minds, and go ABOVE and BEYOND every day to bring learning to life for our students. Join us in celebrating them during Teacher Appreciation Week!

Let's shower the teachers this week with acts of kindness. Please encourage your Dragon to write a card, create a piece of art, or even pick some flowers to share with teachers. The week also includes daily treats and a luncheon.

With grateful hearts, The St. Michael's Parents' Association

All children will walk forward with their classmates, though if any students do not wish to receive ashes, they may cross their arms over their chests to receive a simple blessing. Please talk with your child(ren) about your own faith tradition(s) and how that informs your family's choice about how they will participate.
