ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR FRIDAY, MAY 31, 2024

EXAM INFORMATION To eliminate the increasing number of conflicts in exam times, we will be shifting to testing by carrier. Students absent on an exam day due to an unplanned medical emergency will need to coordinate a time to take the exams with the teacher of those courses. Absences during exam days require medical documentation, and unexcused absences will result in a zero for the exam. There is no “make-up day” and every effort should be made to take an exam during the exam time.

‍BLESSING OF THE DAY - May the God of Receptivity be with you, accepting you just as you are, holding your frailties and your strengths, your sinfulness and your sanctity in gentle hands. This God loves you in your limitations and in your gifts. May you learn to live in the tension between heaven and earth, to receive gently the both/and stories of all those with whom you journey. May the God of Receptivity bless you. --Maxine Shonk, OP
