Farewell to Sr. Merici

nullnull


Sr. Merici has been volunteering in my classroom every Monday morning for the past 8 years. Also, on Fridays in the Kindergarten classrooms. She has come in religiously snow, rain or shine to work with the children. Sr. was a huge help every Monday morning. Sr. would read one on one with the students, help them practice Math facts and help them complete work they missed when they were sick.

Sr. Merici is being asked to move back to the Motherhouse in Rochester Minn. in Aug. We had a good-bye party for her in the school hall last Monday.

She will be missed by all of us at St. Juliana School.
