September 2019 Enewsletter ​ ​ ​ "Walking in Faith, Working for Justice" The new school year is well underway and students, faculty, and staff are beginning to settle into a regular school routine. Throughout the Salesian world-wide family, three days (or triduum) are traditionally set aside at the beginning of each school year to focus on our identity as a Salesian school. We will set aside September 11-13 for these three days of reflection and celebration. During these three days, we will have opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation, our annual Faith Family picnic, and our first all-school Mass. Each year, as part of our Salesian triduum, we also reflect on a message sent to us from the Rector Major - the leader of the Salesians throughout the world and successor of St. John Bosco. In this annual message or strenna, the Rector Major encourages us to grow in our calling as a Catholic school, following the example of Don Bosco. This year, the Rector Major's strenna centers on the core of our Salesian identity, namely, to form young people who are honest and upright, grounded in faith, and responsible members of their communities. Our theme for the year, based on the strenna, is "Walking in Faith, Working for Justice." This theme reminds us that each day we are called to ‘walk the walk’ when it comes to our faith. How can we treat another person with dignity and respect that they deserve as a beloved child of God? We are also called to be agents of justice in our world. How do we reach out and help those in need; how do we welcome the stranger in our midst; how do we build up our communities where all are treated with dignity, respect, and with justice? These questions encourage us to live this new year together with an awareness of the bigger picture in life. We are called as a Catholic and Salesian school to follow the example of Jesus who taught us to pray, "your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." We hope that this new school year will be a time of growth and challenge. May we create a school and a world where we can experience the joys of heaven. In the spirit of Don Bosco, Adrian Mison Fulay Salesian Coordinator of Youth Ministry First Floor Renovation Before... After! Thanks to the generosity of a few donors, crews were here this summer to install new flooring throughout the first floor of the main building, including the front foyer, front office, and hallways.

He was the founder of two very active religious congregations during a time when other orders were being suppressed; he was a trusted and key liaison between the Papacy and the emerging Italian nation of the Risorgimento; above all, in troubled times, he was the saintly Christian educator who successfully wedded modern pedagogy to Christ's law and Christ's love for the poor young, and thereby deserved the proud title of Apostle of youth.

Los muchachos del Latino Club junto con sus moderadores y líderes se han encargado no sólo de embellecer los pasillos de la escuela con coloridas banderas y decoraciones (las cuales incluyen artesanías típicas, fotos de ceremonias tradicionales como “la quinceañera”, e imágenes de nuestra querida Virgen de Guadalupe) que representan las tradiciones y la cultura de los países de donde provienen las familias de nuestra comunidad salesiana, sino que también han organizado ventas y actividades para la recaudación de fondos que luego serán donados a fundaciones y organizaciones que apoyan a niños y jóvenes de familias latinas de bajos recursos económicos.
