Message from the Principal

We have met with the appeals panel and we will know the status of our school by February 15th. I want to thank all of the parents and children for their letters and prayers of support. Until we hear about the status of our appeal O.M.C. and Holy Cross will continue to plan and try to work out all of the details that would be necessary to create a regional school. The details of these meetings are available on our website under Faith in the Future. As soon as we hear the decision we will inform you.
Thank you;
Mr. Bryan Werner
