The long-awaited electrical upgrade of Incarnation School has begun. Step one is the installation of a substation on campus in the schoolyard next to the junior high building. As a result of the construction, the school's email server will be down until the office is reopened on August 2, 2010. For emergencies, contact the parish office at (818) 242-2579
The Incarnation School office will be closing up for the summer this Friday, to open again August 2. Please take care of your business with the school soon. Yearbooks have arrived and may be picked up now. The first day of school for the children is August 30, 2010.

Lord God,
You know everything and you know that we love you!
We will follow you in the quiet of our hearts
and in our love for one another.
May we carry the love we’ve experienced this year
out into the world this summer and always. Amen.
A Message from the Principal
The school year always seems to come and go so quickly. With the school year behind us and the summer ahead, I want to encourage your children to continue learning at home. Remind your children to read---visit the library or book store and find books that your child is interested in to promote reading for pleasure. Enjoy your summer experiences and make those learning opportunities for your children. If you are looking for summer programs, please stop by the office to see what is available in the area. On behalf of all of us at Incarnation School, I wish you and your family a healthy, happy, and safe summer! See you August 30th!
I would also like to Thank Fr. Paul for his guidance and leadership of our parish and school community.
We wish him well and will miss him dearly. God bless you Fr. Paul.
Sincerely,
Ms. Olivia Carrillo

Scrip Tip

You can still order from the "Special Order" form throughout the summer by dropping it off to the scrip table and it will be available for you to pick up the following week.

Teacher Appreciation Week
This week is National Teacher Appreciation Week. When we express our gratitude for our teachers, we take the time to reflect on the positive ways they have impacted our students’ lives and our school community. We can probably all recall a special teacher that made a difference in our lives. For these teachers--the listeners, motivators, caregivers, and mentors--we are thankful! At Incarnation, we have a special week planned for our teachers and staff to show them our gratitude for the work they do for our students and our school. We wish all of our faculty and staff a wonderful week!
General PTO Meeting
Our last General PTO Meeting of this school year is Monday, May 10 at 7:00 p.m. We will hold Board elections, so please consider donating your time as part of our school’s PTO Board. The PTO Board meets monthly and needs energetic, driven parents! We hope to see you at the meeting!
