Latest news

Hello Good Shepherd Families. I hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful summer! This is just a quick reminder of two uniform items:

1)  For those with children entering grades 5 through 8, it is important to note that these grades will have PE three (3) days per week with Mrs. Miller in 2009-2010 instead of two (2) days, as it was last school year. PE will continue to be two days per week for grades K through 4.

2) We will likely have a uniform exchange during a weekend in mid-July at which you can purchase used uniform apparel.  I will let you know as soon as I have a firm date. This may affect some of your purchase decisions during the Merry Mart sale

The office will be closed between June 30 and August 1, but some of the office staff can still be reached by email during the month of July. Check here for updates and changes. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Blessings,
Dan Anderson
Principal
