Schoolwide Learning Expectations

These are the Schoolwide Learning Expectations students are expected to review this week.

A graduate of St. Dominic Parish School will be…

A committed Catholic who:

• willingly shares his or her gifts to serve others in the Church and global community.

A responsible and respectful person who:

• understands his or her innate value and value of others as beloved children of God.
• is self-confident and self-motivated and has the inner strength to make moral, compassionate, and healthy choices.
• is prepared to make a positive difference in the world through his or her words and actions.
• appreciates and values the diversity of all God’s people.

Food for Family Thought

Encourage your child to act according to the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That will foster an awareness of their solidarity as one big, human family. Jesus longs for the time when we recognize that we are all one, just as Jesus and the Father are one.

What is one seemingly impossible goal that you would like to see the world achieve during your lifetime?
