PRINCIPALS MONTHLY NEWSLETTER
Jesus said, Let the children come to me and do not stop them, Because the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these. Matthew 19:14
Dear Parent/Guardian:
In teaching your children here at St. Leonard, let us all remember the following. Every child is a priceless gift from the Creator. As parents, friends of parents, teachers, aunts, and grandmothers, we understand the critical importance of raising our children with love, with discipline, and with God. Every child deserves the presence of caring adults who serve as godly role models. Let us always be mindful of the profound responsibilities of teaching and raising our children to know the Lord and to walk with Him always.
