Dear Parents and Students,

I am pleased to report a smooth transition to the second semester.  On the first day of school we celebrated Epiphany with an all-school prayer service.  The prayer service was led by Fr. Ken Steckler and music was provided by members of the choir. 

We celebrated Catholic Schools Week from January 28-February 1.  During this week, I hope you were able spend a few moments in thanksgiving for all that Catholic schools have done to enrich your lives.  I have been extremely blessed by the men and women that have served the Catholic schools I have attended and where I have worked.  Mater Dei strives to provide the highest quality education available in the Catholic tradition that develops students for Christian service.

We were pleased to welcome ...
