Salvete!

Welcome back to what I know will be another great year at OLV!  I hope that you enjoyed your summer.  Mine was filled with family, fun, and plenty of opportunities to attend professional conferences.  I relaxed and refreshed, but I also learned many new ways to enhance my classes and made connections with colleagues from across the country.

This year the computers classes will see the students with plenty of opportunities to sharpen their skills, and I hope to make more frequent use of the iPad lab.

Latin classes will continue studies of ancient Rome and its people, language, and traditions.  Grades 3 through 8 will notice new textbooks to introduce a more solid structure of the course work, and many grades will also have an opportunity to learn a little bit of ancient Greek.  I will also be starting a local chapter of the National Junior Classical League.  More information will come home soon.

I hope that you are as excited as I am to begin this next year of studies!
