OLW PARENTS, PARISHIONERS GET CLOSE LOOK AT OLW SCHOOL During Catholic Schools Week Open House…

Our Lady of the Wayside parishioners - especially school parents - were able to get a close look at OLW’s school during an Open House on Sunday, January 26, the beginning of Catholic Schools Week.

Classrooms were open for inspection, teachers were on-hand to meet parents and answer questions, and Parents (and other visitors) were greeted and welcomed to school buildings by OLW School Principal David Wood.

…and pre-schoolers got a preview of what’s ahead for them!

And as usual, Children’s Liturgy of the Word was held for youngsters during 9:30 a.m. Mass.
