Good Morning to all of our DeSales families and friends! Tomorrow, May 21 is our May Crowning Mass. This is a very special Mass in which we honor all of our First Communicants. They will be sharing the Eucharist for the first time as a group and with all of our other Communicants. Very special time. Congratulations to our Valedictorian and Salutatorian who were announced yesterday. Riley Adams and John Killion are extremely hard working students who deserve this honor. I went to the annual YMCA awards dinner last night and there were several DeSales families there who were being recognized for their accomplishments and volunteerism with the YMCA Aquatics Program. Congratulations to the NYS record breakers Elizabeth Schwartz, Aidan Morgan, Madison Fragale, Grace Buzak and Gracie Cordle. Best wishes to Mrs. Russell and her students for their Spring Concert performance tomorrow night at 6:30 here at DeSales. Remember there is no school this Friday or Monday May 23 and 26, for the Memorial Holiday weekend. Enjoy.

Good Morning DeSales Families, I hope all is well for you and your families during the blessed month of May in which we honor the Blessed Mother. I want to congratulate those of you who are celebrating a First Holy Communion. That is a very special time in your life and a chance to really feel close to Jesus when you receive the Eucharist. I want all of our volunteer coaches and assistant coaches for the many spots we have to know how much you are appreciated. It is a great commitment of time and dedication that you bring to our sports programs. We could not do it without you. This week our 5th grade will be meeting with Mrs. Metz and Mr. Wilson to talk about body changes in their lives. Parents are welcome to join us on Thursday at 1:30pm. The Catholic High Schools will be presenting on Friday 5/17 at 1?30pm to our 5-6-7th graders. God Bless the 8th grade and their chaperones as they travel to Boston for the annual Whale Watch trip. Safe travels. The 6th and 7th grade will be enjoying a trip to the Lockport caves on Wed. Hope everyone has a wonderful week. Mrs. G
