Principalprincipalspocschoollm.orgA Warm Welcome to the 2024–2025 School Year!
As we embark on this new academic year, I am filled with excitement and gratitude as I continue my journey as your principal for a second year. Reflecting on last year’s achievements and growth, I eagerly anticipate building on our success with the collaboration of the administration, staff, faculty, PTO, and you, our families.
Our mission remains steadfast: to provide a nurturing and faith-filled environment where every child can thrive academically, spiritually, and socially. We are dedicated to upholding the values of our Catholic faith throughout every aspect of our educational experience. Our passionate staff and faculty are committed to fostering a love of learning and instilling virtues of compassion, integrity, and service in our students.
This year, we have planned a range of enriching programs and activities designed to enhance our students' academic and spiritual growth. From engaging classroom lessons and extracurricular activities to community service projects and spiritual retreats, we aim to create a well-rounded and meaningful experience for all our students.
We are delighted to announce that our school has successfully completed the accreditation process and received the maximum accreditation period of six years. Additionally, we have introduced several updates to our curriculum: we have adopted a new grading platform, “Gradelink”; secured a two-year license for “Go Math”; and acquired “Freckle Math” and “AR Accelerate Reading.”
We are also focusing on ongoing catechetical formation, the professional development of our teachers, and the departmentalization of grade levels. Additionally, we have installed new emergency exit signs in both the North and South buildings and implemented new accounting software. We will also be working on creating our school’s alma mater song.
The partnership between home and school is crucial to our students' success. We encourage you to actively engage in your child's education and participate in the many events and opportunities we have planned for this school year. Your support and collaboration are invaluable, and we look forward to working together to foster a positive and supportive community for our children.
Please feel free to reach out to me or any of our staff with any questions or concerns throughout the year. Our doors are always open, and we are here to assist you in any way we can.
Thank you for entrusting us with the education and formation of your child.
May God bless you and your families, and may this school year be filled with growth, joy, and abundant blessings.
Blessings,
Mr. Loaiza
