Our 7th and 2nd grade students played a special role in this cherished tradition, leading us in prayer and sharing their love for Mary with kindness and joy. The entire school community brought flowers to our May altar, creating a vibrant and prayerful tribute to Mary. We were also honored to welcome Dr. Charles, Assistant Superintendent of Schools, who joined us for this special celebration. Friday was a heartwarming reminder of the faith and unity that make Our Lady of Peace School so special.

We are incredibly proud of our outstanding Aquinas Club students, who have shown dedication and perseverance all year, coming in early every Thursday morning to work with Mr. Capuano. Their commitment and enthusiasm were displayed during their final presentations on Friday, May 9th, at Holy Trinity Diocesan High School. This year, the students explored the essential question: "How has music influenced and supported the Catholic faith throughout history?" Their in-depth research, insightful reflections, and creative presentations left a lasting impression, especially remarkable for their first year participating! Congratulations to our students: 8th grade—Joshua B., Caitlyn C., Nicholas S., and Francis W.; 7th grade—Giuseppe F., Gavin S., and Tabitha VH; and 6th grade—Gianna N. and Ariela R. You did an outstanding job and represented OLP with pride! We are very proud of you. An #OLPStrong thank you to Mr. Capuano for his time, dedication, and guidance. You've helped these students grow in faith, knowledge, and confidence, and we're so proud of them for accomplishing this!

May God's Love Shine on You Always!
