We congratulate our second graders on receiving their First Holy Communion on Saturday, May 4th.  The multi-media presentation shows photos from the event, plus some of the preparation.  The students spent months learning, praying, and participating in many activities.  On a day of retreat, they put their hand prints on the chasuble that Monsignor Bommarito wore for their First Communion Mass.  They also baked bread with the guidance of their teachers, Sister Katie Press, Mrs. Jennifer Ruggeri, and Mrs. Jennifer Smith.  The piano music in the presentation is by Gary Scott.  

Dear Families and Friends of St. Ambrose School,

It is with a heavy heart that I write to inform you that at the end of this academic year (May 24), I will leave my current position at St. Ambrose School to serve the Apostles of the Sacred Heart in another capacity.

Together, over the last three years, we have moved St. Ambrose forward in its educational mission, while instilling the great love of Christ in our children.

I know that you will welcome Sr. Barbara Zipoli, ASCJ with the same warm welcome that you have extended to me.

I will miss your wonderful children, and the spirit in which you have generously helped and supported me for the good of our school and our parish.

Please know how deeply grateful I am for all you have meant to me over the last three years.  You and your families will always be in my heart and my prayers.

May Christ fill your homes and your hearts!
