Our Loreto little ones had a delightful time today, spreading Easter cheer with an exciting egg hunt! Their laughter and joy filled the air as they searched for colorful eggs, surrounded by loving friends and family.

We had a special visitor at St. Benilde School today! Local author Alex McConduit engaged our students with a reading of his books, a trumpet performance, and an inspiring talk about his life as a writer. Our future authors were surely inspired!

4th grader Dean W. stepped into the role of principal for the day. His day was filled with exciting responsibilities, including assisting with the car line, supervising recess, cruising around the campus on the Duck Mobile scooter, lending a hand in the office with Mrs. Suzzan, and enjoying a delicious lunch from Raising Canes.

Our 3rd graders had a blast celebrating St. Joseph's Day at a special Italian Luncheon, lovingly put together by the St. Benilde Grandparents Club. In addition to enjoying the delicious food, they also had a great time learning about St. Joseph and his life, which added a meaningful layer to their celebration.

On St. Joseph's Day, our Pre-K4 students got together for a special event called "Donuts with Dads" to celebrate the feast of Jesus's foster father. It was a sweet and memorable day for everyone involved!
