Loving and merciful God,
You see what we need, yet
in your love you give us
the freedom to choose your grace.
May we learn to receive your love with
joy and gratitude.
Amen.

A Message from the Principal
I am happy to report that our WCEA/WASC visit last week was very positive! The committee was quite impressed with Incarnation—the students, teachers, parents, and all the school has to offer. We were blessed to have such a supportive team working with us in the last stages of the process. There are approximately 30 elementary schools going through WASC this year from now until the end of March. After all visits have been completed, the WCEA Commission will read through each school’s report and will make a determination on the term of the accreditation in June. Our critical areas for growth, as approved and recommended by the visiting committee, are as follows:
1. Revise the school’s mission and philosophy statements
2. Though reading comprehension ITBS scores are high, we will focus on continued improvement in this area and closely analyze test scores
3. Provide more authentic Christian service opportunities for students with a connection to the larger world
4. The administration will work with the Consultative School Board to develop a long-range strategic plan
5. Develop a professional growth plan to address inclusion practices
Thank you for your support during this important process.

A Message from the Principal
The recent earthquake in Haiti has caused much devastation. At a time like this, we are all called to help those in need. Catholic elementary and high schools in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles are participating in a campaign called “HATS FOR HAITI.” On Friday, January 22, students can wear hats to school– baseball hats, cowboy hats, crazy hats, etc. - and each participant is asked to donate $1.00 (although a larger donation is certainly welcome) toward our “Hats for Haiti” cause. The money collected will be sent to the Holy Childhood Association – Haiti Fund.
The diocese has an anonymous donor who will match dollar for dollar all funds collected through this effort – up to $100,000. Then, 100 % of all funds will be “wired” directly to the Archdiocese of Port au Prince, Haiti, on January 29th. It is our hope that together we can raise at least $100,000 for the Holy Childhood Association – Haiti Fund. If 200 schools in the diocese participate and each school raises at least $500.00, we will meet our goal. With the donor matching our gifts, there is a possibility that we can donate up to $200,000 to this cause! Please help us support this effort, we ask that you keep the people of Haiti in your prayers.
