Today the seniors are praying for the seventh consecutive day for wisdom in making their college decisions. This is part of a nine-day novena, a popular devotion in the Catholic Church that demonstrates perseverance in prayer.

Each day in their theology class, the seniors are praying a decade of the rosary and reflecting on the possibilities of their future. It began on Monday, October 20 and will conclude on Friday, October 31.

As our seniors are confronted with the many choices that await them throughout this year, Saint Mary High School is encouraging them to ask God to help them discern the right path. As a Catholic institution, we are modeling to our students the importance and efficacy of prayer.

The Drama Club will be performing two one-act comedies on November 7 and 8 at 7:00pm. These shows will involve about 50 Saint Mary's students from cast to crew. The plays are directed by Mrs. Reardon and Mr. Lepage, featuring the artistic designs of Mrs. Farley.

We're calling these evenings "Drama and Desserts" since wine and desserts will be available during intermission in order to support the work of the Parent Involvement Committee (PIC).
