🔍 May’s Virtue: Circumspection 🔍
This month at Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools, we’re focusing on circumspection—the virtue of thinking before we act, considering the consequences of our choices, and seeking God’s guidance in every decision.
Circumspection helps us act wisely, make thoughtful choices, and live in a way that honors God and others. We’re encouraging our students to pause, reflect, and choose the path that leads to goodness and truth.

Today we celebrated the FINAL dart day of the school year! These students were caught acting like a Knight in their words and/or actions amongst many others throughout the school.
In addition, we honored these teachers who are retiring or leaving St. Mary at the end of this school year. We thank them for their time, talent & dedication to St. Mary!
Happy May Day! 🌸 Ms. LeGrand's preschool 3 students were able to spread joy today by delivering sweet May Day baskets to teachers all around the building. A little kindness goes a long way! 💐✨

Our 3rd graders had the best day exploring, learning, and discovering at the children’s museum! From hands-on exhibits to nonstop smiles, this field trip was one for the books 🧠💡
