High School Seniors!

As I look back over the last year, there are so many things that I, as the principal of St. Max School, am thankful for. I am thankful for the wonderful teachers who go above and beyond each school day to bring the best faith-filled education to our students. Now, with the distance learning, they have reached even farther to continue to bring this wonderful education to our students. I am thankful for the behind the scenes staff members who make the school run smoothly, no matter if we are learning here, or at a distance.

Now, more than ever, thank you to our families as they work with us each day to educate their children.

Thanks also to Father Kowalczyk for bringing each of us closer to Christ, and allowing us to share that with the students. Thank you to all of our volunteers who tirelessly work to support the daily activity of the school.

Lastly, I would like to thank the Parish of St. Max and its wonderful members for their prayers and support. Without you we would not be able to do what we do.

Thank You! Mary Ziebell, Principal
