Dear Gesu Families,
I hope you all had a wonderful summer! We are so excited to welcome you back to Gesu as we begin a new school year next week.
Please mark your calendars for two important dates:
- 8:00 AM-10:00 AM Tuesday: School Orientation
- Wednesday: First Day of School
Our construction projects are in the final stages, and the new spaces are looking fantastic. We can’t wait for you to see all of the progress and improvements around our school!
Before the school year officially begins, I hope to see everyone this weekend at our Gesu Community Block Party. It will be a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with one another, celebrate our Gesu community, and kick off the new school year together.
We are looking forward to an exciting year ahead and can’t wait to welcome our students and families back to school!
