Dear Families: We made it through the first week of school! It was a great week of getting re-acquainted, learning new class schedules and getting back into our normal school routines.

Pray for sunshine and good weather for our fifth graders this week as they head to the Olympic National Forest for their three-day outdoor education experience. This is one of the highlights of their years at St. Anne School. Each year as I meet with the eighth graders for their “exit interviews”, the number one […]
