Saying Farewell

At a luncheon today, Mrs. Loeffler and Mrs. Rainbolt spoke for the staff of St. Columbkille Catholic School as they said farewell to five coworkers.

The first was Mrs. White who has been in third grade for 24 years. She has watched the school develop and transform in her time with us. We're delighted that she will remain part of our parish family.

Mrs. Hamill said she isn't sure how long she has been with our school, but in addition to once having Miss Borcyk as a student, she also had Mr. Barth and Mr. Nardini as students when she taught at St Robert's.

Mrs. Leimbach spent one year as a Kindergarten aide before spending two as our secretary. She and her husband Rich are are retiring to spend more time together and relax and reconnect.

Before Miss Hart joined our staff two years ago, we got to know her as a frequent substitute. She will be teaching at a Catholic School in Portland, OR next year. Mrs. Loeffler expects a postcard from Oregon and from Washington next year.

Mr. Cunningham said that leaving our school was the most difficult decision of his life. He will be teaching at Marian High School next year as well as helping coach their basketball team. The staff made it clear that they expect some state championships from him.

Miss Hart also got a special gift from the three other teachers who joined the staff the same year as here.

We pray for the best for each of you!

Fr Norman Visits

Former St Columbkille Catholic School student Fr. John Norman stopped by to visit today.

Mrs. English showed her current students the First Grade photo of one of her former students.

On Monday, Fr. Norman returns to Rome for his final year of school. He showed Mrs. Loeffler's class where Rome is.

Prompted by Mrs. Loeffler's enthusiasm for her current students, Fr. Norman decided they needed some more marbles in their marble jar.

The students in 1B were overwhelmed with excitement when Fr Norman loaded up their jar as well. The students are typically allowed to add just one marble to the jar when they behave well. Then, when the jar is full there is a class party. With Fr Norman's help, the next marble party is coming quicker than Mrs. Loeffler or Mrs. English had anticipated.

Fr. Norman's classroom tour finished in 3A visiting his Third Grade teacher and blessing the students.



Fr. Norman: be sure to visit again!
