Wondering what happens during a papal conclave? When a pope passes or resigns, cardinals from around the world gather in the Sistine Chapel to elect a new pope. The process is steeped in centuries of tradition—complete with secret ballots, deep prayer, and even a smoke signal! Black smoke means no decision yet; white smoke means… We have a pope!

The South County Kiwanis Club honored 8th grader Estelle as an “all-around” outstanding student. Daily, Estelle goes out of her way to bring a smile to other people. She’s a great student who works hard for her grades and has a kind word for everyone she meets. Estelle is a member of the National Junior Honor Society, Horton's Heroes, Mini Vinnies, and SFA Broadway.
We are proud of you, Estelle!
Thank you to our friend Miles, who purchased a snowball fight and popsicles with his LiveSchool Points. The fourth grade (and their teachers) had a blast chasing each other around the gym with snowballs.

On Friday, the Middle School students participated in a poverty simulation. They received different designations of income and education. During each round, they had to figure out how to get transportation, housing, and food while receiving a life card, which could help or hurt their situation. We are thrilled they could participate in this impactful simulation.

The Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word offer this prayer for the Holy Father:
Lord Jesus, you have called Pope Francis to yourself. Thank you for the gift of his papacy. When he was with us, he tirelessly showed the Church your constant mercy toward sinners. Grant him now your mercy and let him rest eternally with you in your Kingdom.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
