St. Mary's Grade School

Dear Sixth Grade Parents,
As part of our Sixth Grade Recognition, we are creating a special slideshow that will celebrate each student and their journey at St. Mary’s Catholic School.
Each sixth grader will be featured on one slide, highlighting:
A baby photo
A current photo
Their favorite St. Mary’s memory
A Scripture passage that is meaningful to them
We encourage you to take a few intentional minutes with your child to talk through these reflections together. It’s a simple but powerful way to pause, look back with gratitude, and mark this important milestone.
👉 Please complete the Google Form by Friday, February 27, 2026:

Important reminders:
Please submit one form per student
You will need to be logged into a Google account to upload photos (a Google requirement)
Photos and responses should be school-appropriate
If you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to email me at andrews.geoff@gmail.com.
Thank you for partnering with us in celebrating the faith, growth, and memories of our Sixth Grade students. We are grateful for your support and look forward to honoring this class in a meaningful way.
