Talk to the teacher first. 2. If you feel that you didn’t get your concern answered then talk to the principal. 3. If you still feel that your concerns weren’t answered then talk to the pastor. 4. If you still don’t feel satisfied then you need to talk to the Archdiocese. Thank you for your help with this important matter. SAFE AND SACRED Anyone who has not done Safe and Sacred, which is required by the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, will not be able to volunteer at St. Nicholas School. This can be done online and only takes 45 minutes. The link to do this is: www.safeandsacred-archindy.org. At the end please have them send me your Certificate of Completion to me so that I can have this on file. My new email address is: [email protected]. THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: “How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heaven. No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive Him, still, the dear Christ enters in.” In His Service, Sister Carol Ann, OSF ______________________________________ Building Saints and Scholars Since 1859
