Every morning, our students hear about the history of our faith leaders whose courage was shown in their kind acts of compassion for others. This morning, our Eighth Grade Student Council candidates will share their ideas for our school community as they present their speeches on zoom to the second through eighth grades. We are proud that our students live our school Mission statement to act with wisdom, compassion and leadership. Each grade will elect two representatives to share their thoughts on the Student Council this year. We applaud these students who generously give their time and talents to make ASA the wonderful school community that it is!

As we move closer to our school's feast day on November 1, the students are reminded of the courage of the men and women who have become saints in our Catholic faith. They were like many in our communities- workers and leaders alongside their neighbors. What defines them as saintly are the ways in which they thought of others before themselves. Our students learn to show in action and word the respect and consideration they have for their fellow classmates and teachers.
