News!

Dear St. Clement’s Family,                                                                                         April 2010
 

It’s Spring again!  The wild March winds have subsided somewhat and we have been blessed with April showers.  We are enjoying each glorious day with our bright, energetic children.

It was wonderful to see the youngsters on their return from Spring Recess.  We’ve enjoyed their happy times vicariously as they related all the adventures, sights they saw and the activities with family.  How fortunate they are to be loved and cherished by so many. 
 

Mahalo for showing your love and caring for the school through all your hard work, cooperation and sharing of precious time and resources.  The campus and rooms sported clean, new looks after our Nâ ‘Ohana School/Parish Workday.  Many thanks to all who toiled that day and/or have taken projects home to be completed.   
 

Your responses to our special chapels of Easter Offering and Flowering of the Cross were overwhelming.  Your donations of non-perishable food items that helped stock the Parish pantry      helped many to enjoy an Easter meal.  The abundance of gorgeous blossoms have kept our cross “in bloom” and adding a bright touch of new life and Spring to all who view it.  Thank you. 
 

Yes, we are so very thankful for all our blessings.  As we continue to work on the current education of our children, we are keenly aware that this is a time of great anxiety as families await or may have received word about the next rung on the educational ladder for many of our students.  We realize that unfortunately, all of the letters of notification from your schools of choice may not be positive.  We must keep in mind that there must be the right match of student to school, and no single school is perfect for every child.  A letter of non-acceptance might also mean that there is simply not enough space at the school.  Because we are aware that some of our friends may have received disappointing news, it’s prudent to refrain from asking them about the status of their applications.  For those who receive good news, it’s wise to use caution when speaking with others because they may not have received letters of acceptance.  We appreciate your caring and sensitivity about others’ situations and handling this difficult period in thoughtful ways. Mahalo. 
 

This is also the time when we are planning for our summer and the next school year.  As we do this, the great challenge is the appropriate placement of each child.  We realize that parents also wish to see this happen and we share your concerns.  Here at St. Clement’s, we work as a team to place each child in a class to ensure the most beneficial environment for that child.  We are indeed fortunate to have wonderful, qualified staff as we consider the most appropriate placement for your child.  While choice of school is a matter for parents, the final placement of each child in a class is a school responsibility which we take very seriously.  Thank you for placing your trust and faith in us. 
 

Thank you for your continued participation and support.  Happy Spring!  
 

 

Sincerely,

 Patsy M. Izumo, Director
