Catholic School Funding Increased!  Click Here to Thank Your Elected Officials by Email.  Thanks to you and the roughly 40,000 e-mails that were sent in from the Catholic Action Network, Catholic schools will see an increase in funding in the 2013-14 state budget. Lawmakers have printed the final bills that will make up the state’s $135 billion budget – approved on March 27. Included in the budget is a nearly $14 million increase in funding for mandated services reimbursement.


Attached is a copy of the Family Letter from Mr. Clagnaz dated March 25, 2013 that discusses security updates at the school.  Some changes in procedures will take effect on Monday, April 8, 2013.

Habemus Papam
 
"Let us begin this journey together...this journey for the Roman Catholic Church.  It is a Journey of friendship, of love, of trust, and faith.  Let us pray always for one another.  Let us pray for the whole world.  There is a great brotherhood among us."  
Pope Francis

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI declared a "Year of Faith" from October 11, 2012 until November 24, 2013.  The Year of Faith is an invitation for every Catholic to turn towards Jesus Christ, encounter him in the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist, and rediscover our Faith and our Church.

OFFICIAL NOTICE: Rockville Centre - Ursuline Sister Joanne Callahan, Diocesan Superintendent of Schools, is recognized as an official with authority to respond to Revenue Procedure (75-50) which was published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin dated December 8, 1975.  In conformity with IRS regulation, notice is hereby given that the schools of the Diocese of Rockville Centre admit students of any race to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the schools and that the schools do not discriminate on the basis of race in administration of their education policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.  Sister Joanne further explained that the very notion of racial discrimination is diametrically opposed to the concept of Christian communities that our schools strive to be.  She also pointed out that our Catholic schools have always welcomed and have been enriched by students from various ethnic groups.
