BABY BOUTIQUE

Catholic Social Services’ Baby Boutique helps approximately 50 parents a month. We are running low on diaper wipes, socks (6 months – 2T) and baby clothing (18 months - 2T). Please drop donations at the office or the basket in the Social Hall. Thank you for remembering the littlest members of our community.

OUR LADY OF THE VALLEY

Registration is ongoing.

Classes began Wednesday, August 18. If you are interested in providing your child with a strong academic Catholic education, contact  the school at 376-0883.

Visitors often note that they experience a respectful, warm environment where learning is occurring at OLV. This is one reason why our students perform well on standardized tests and reach high levels of academic achievement.

Isn’t all this worth the investment?
