Life of Service according to the Gospel

Week of October 14

A reading from the First Letter of Peter

Above all, maintain constant love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins.  Be hospitable to one another without complaining.  Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.  Whoever speaks must do so as one speaking the very words of God; whoever serves must do so with the strength that God supplies, so that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ.  To him belong the glory and the power forever and ever.

in Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

Announcements

It is essential for parents to embody the mission of Saint Jeanne de Lestonnac Catholic School by upholding Catholic values and adhering to the guidelines in our Parent/Student handbook. These values serve as the foundation for fostering a supportive, faith-centered community that nurtures moral development and academic excellence. By being role models, we ensure that our actions reflect the virtues of respect, compassion, and integrity that are at the heart of our Catholic identity. Adhering to the handbook’s guidelines helps maintain a safe, respectful, and productive learning environment where all students can thrive spiritually, academically, and socially, thus contributing to the school's mission of forming responsible, compassionate individuals.

In response to this, please take a moment to submit this short survey (only 10 questions). This will be the second of a five part series of short surveys to help us better serve you as the primary educator and disciplinarian of your child(ren).

Parental Responsibilities for Teaching Values and Behavior (2 of 5 Surveys)

Feast of the Rosary

Last Monday, the Class of 2025 at Saint Jeanne de Lestonnac Catholic School led our Kindergarten - Seventh Grade in a beautiful Decade of the Holy Rosary. Their reverence, dedication, and leadership during this sacred tradition left a lasting impression on our school community.

The students’ spiritual guidance was a powerful reminder of the importance of faith and unity as we gathered in prayer. Their participation in this cherished Catholic practice serves as an inspiration to their peers and demonstrates the strength we find when we come together in faith.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Class of 2025 for leading us in prayer and for setting such a wonderful example of devotion.

Let us continue to pray together for peace, love, and grace in our lives and the world.

Orange County Academic Pentathlon INTEREST Survey

Saint Jeanne de Lestonnac Catholic School proudly participates in the annual Academic Pentathlon sponsored by the Orange County Department of Education. The Academic Pentathlon prepares students for success in high school, college and careers by building 21st-century skills in communication, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, and character. It is an exciting five-event competition for grades six, seven, and eight.

We would like to know if your 6th-8th grade child is interested in participating. Generally, the team meets once a week in the school's Library Center (and/or a designated classroom) for their coaching sessions. The coaching session is at 7 a.m. once or twice a week and may also be held after school on Friday Early Dismissal Days from 1:30 - 2:30 p.m. as the competition day draws near. Participation in the coaching sessions is mandatory, so please be aware of the commitment prior to submitting the interest form.

This is an INTEREST FORM, not a Registration Form. Depending on the number of interested students and available parent coach volunteers, we may or may not be able to offer the opportunity to participate, as we need a minimum of six participants in each respective grade level and a minimum number of parent volunteers. Once we determine if there is enough interest, we will email you more information and registration details. Please note that although there may be "Interest" in participation, it will depend on the number of "Registered" participants in each respective grade level.

Pentathlon Interest Form

 

The month of October is Earthquake Awareness Month. Saint Jeanne de Lestonnac Catholic School will particiapte in the upcoming Great Shakeout scheduled for October 17. This simulation allows us to identify areas in need of resources should a magnitude 6 or greater earthquake were to occur during the school day. 

We would like to assure all of our parents that this simulation is part of our overall Safety-Security-Readiness program. As the year progresses we will have other drills and simulations to measure the school's response and preparedness protocols.

These weekend retreats is conducted by the Sacred Heart Sisters. During these days you will have the opportunity to draw nearer to our Lord Jesus through presentations, time for quiet prayer, faith sharing, and more

Football and Volleyball News

We want to thank all of the parents for their generosity and team spirit regarding treats for after-game competitions. Please keep in mind that the standing rule, which all students adhere to regarding food and drink on the Field of Dreams, applies to both athletic practices and competitions. We ask that all treats be handed out at the exit gate leading to the parking lot. Thank you for your cooperation and for being good stewards of the field, as well as great role models for your children and the opposing teams.

Winter Season - Basketball Coming Soon

We will be sending out a Basketball Interest Form in the coming weeks to identify students interested in trying out for their respective basketball teams, so that we can begin planning for the season. We hope that all 5th-8th grade students who want to learn the fundamentals, improve their skills, and participate in basketball will sign up. The season runs from November 18 through the beginning of February. We will have more information regarding practices and games, but for now we hope to see your child(ren) come out and join our Lancer Athletics Program.

If you are interested in becoming a Lancer Athletics Sponsor providing addtional uniforms, watm-ups, etc. for our teams, please email Mr. McKee ([email protected]) for information.
