1.   Thank you to all those students, families, & staff who participated in our
      Mass & May Procession last night! All the students were composed,
      prayerful, and well-behaved!  It was especially meaningful to our 8th
      graders who were called upon by Father Babowitch to join the Communion
      Class in the 1st stanza of "His Banner Over Me Is Love" along with
      gestures and the directive to turn and face the congregation! As they turned
      and looked dumbstruck (literally) they managed to move their lips and
      eventually gesture when Father stood in the middle aisle to guide them.
      In a quiet whisper I told the grads-to-be "Father signs your diplomas!"
      They did manage to survive and after the Mass, procession, crowning, and 
      being look-outs for the Communion Class to make sure that they were
      safely picked up by their parents, they relaxed and took pictures galore in
      their graduation robes and thoroughly enjoyed the moment that marked
      their last May Procession as a class at OLC!  Because the whole evening to         honor Mary was blessed, including our Sixers, we will have a dress-down  
      day tomorrow.
2.   Grades 5 & 4 may bring in orders for nuggets/fries ($2.75) and ice cream
      tomorrow for their lunches on Thursday.
3.   Congratulations to Rylee Baird (5A) Nicholas Cunningham (5D) and
      Matthew McFadden (6A) for completing 100 Miles as participants in the
      OLC 100 Mile Club.
4.   Our Burger King Night raffle tickets tomorrow will be for one of two sets of 
      3 tickes to the Phillies vs. Mets game on Saturday (5/12) night!
