Brief Viau

February 20th, 2026|

A Few “Brief” Notes from the Principal

Hello Crusader Families!

What a weird week this has been!  I’ve been out of the building more than in it due to the Mid-Winter break, a training at the ISD, and then the ice day.  However, I still saw a lot of happy, smiling faces in the hallways.  Unfortunately we were not able to have our Ash Wednesday Mass due to the ice, but we were still able to enjoy Father Rob and Deacon Bob at Mass on Thursday.

Tonight is our first Fish Fry from 5:30-7:30 and tomorrow our Middle School Girls Volleyball team has a tournament at Holy Name starting at 9am.  Then on Sunday, Home and School is providing free tubing at the Gladstone Ski Park from 6-8pm.  Hopefully you’re able to make it out to at least one of these great events this weekend.

God bless,

Mrs. Brief 😀

 


 

A “Viau” from the Headmaster

Hello Crusader Family!

This has been an odd week in terms of time spent in the school building for me due to training, meetings and yesterday’s snow day! While I was away, the students were diligently working hard. I don’t have much of a report this week but a reminder that Friday, February 20, is our first Lenten Fish Fry! Proceeds from the fish fry will go towards supporting our students that will be attending their Rome Pilgrimage. The fish fry will go from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and will be held at the elementary school in the Multi Purpose room. Take outs are available too! I hope to see you all there!

Have a fantastic weekend!

God Bless,

Mrs. Viau

Gym Entry Facelift

January 2nd, 2025|

Our Gym entryway has gotten a much needed facelift! Over break, the walls around the concession area were painted, and the ‘chicken wire’ on the concession stand is finally gone! Huge thanks go out to Henry Trottier and Travis Cary for all the hours they put in helping Tony give the space a Crusader feel, as well as Evelyn Trottier and Abby Derkos for their time painting the concession stand walls…and floor 

Looking forward to our Volleyball Saturday tournaments in February to really break it in!
