The Courageous U Tour
On Friday, February 11, Paul Coughlin spoke to our students on bullying. He also presented to parents and community members on Wednesday, February 9 at MCS. Paul presented a very compelling message directed to all in attendance. He offered strategies and suggestions for the bully, the bystanders, the target, and those in authority (parents, community, and school staff members) to combat the problem of bullying. He stressed that courage is the virtue that underpins all others. We need to have courage to do what is right and to stand up for what is right. In a recent email from Mr. Coughlin, he mentioned how impressed he was with how “engaged” our students “during what I (Paul) think was 75 minutes of talking.” We will be able to continue to work on these strategies with the materials, which will be available to the schools.

A Catholic Pre-Kindergarten offers high quality early childhood education in a safe, caring, nurturing Christian environment.
This combination of excellent teaching, program, and school environment all contribute to the development of your child’s social, thinking, communication, and physical skills. The earlier your child receives support in developing these aspects in a play-centered Christian environment, the easier it will be for him or her to make the transition to Kindergarten and grades beyond. Research proves that children who receive developmentally appropriate opportunities and supports at an early age have a greater chance of succeeding at school. Pre-Kindergarten gives your child a valuable “head start” in preparing for school.

As Holy Roman Emperor, he built many monasteries and churches, and has been regarded throughout history as a model Christian ruler.
