Motivational speaker Sam Demma gave an energetic and humorous talk to our jr. and sr. high students today. He challenged students to “unpack their backpacks” full of negativity and dream big. His message that small, consistent actions can change the world, was a call to inspire students to “be the taco” in someone else’s life—meaning a life of kindness and service to others can change the world! 🌮 #emptyyourbackpack

Did you know that when Our Lady of the Snows opened its doors in 2001, we had 8 staff members and 58 students? We now have 50 staff members and 604 students!

Tonight is your chance to be a part of our rich and vibrant school community. We invite all parents and guardians to join us tonight at our first school council meeting. 7:00 in the band room.
