Pope Francis has designated September 1 as a Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. In a letter announcing the Day of Prayer, the Pope said,
“The annual World Day of prayer for the Care of Creation offers to individual believers and to the community a precious opportunity to renew our personal participation in this vocation as custodians of creation, raising to God our thanks for the marvellous works that He has entrusted to our care, invoking his help for the protection of creation and his mercy for the sins committed against the world in which we live. The celebration of the Day on the same date as the Orthodox Church will be a valuable opportunity to bear witness to our growing communion with our orthodox brothers.”
While so much was happening outdoors this summer to transform our campus and the entrance approaches, parking spaces and play areas, some wonderful things were happening close by in the Shrine of St. Philippine Duchesne. As part of the five-year plan undertaken by the Alumni Association in anticipation of the Bicentennial in 2018, one of the needs identified by the administration (and certainly by the Shrine Director) was a way to accommodate pilgrims who arrive at a time when no volunteer docent is on duty.

It was great to see Academy students and their families back at school! Happy faces filled the halls and classrooms during Open House last night. We’re ready for another year of love and learning, which will get started tomorrow morning for First through Eighth Class students.

We look forward to seeing all of our families this evening at Open House! Drop by to meet your child’s teacher and reconnect with Academy friends. We ask that you enter through the White Center, where representatives from the following will be on hand: the Cafeteria, School Nurse, Early Arrival/Late Dismissal, Extracurricular Clubs and Activities, Athletics, Development Office, Mothers’ Club, Innisbrook Wraps, and Country Fair.
Unfortunately, the Slice of the Hill food truck that was slated to be here has a broken generator, and will be unable to serve food as planned. However, the Kona-Ice truck will be here, serving sno-cones. (Look for them outside White Center near the loading dock.)
That at the Academy of the Sacred Heart we provide CPR/AED Emergency Oxygen Class along with Blood Borne Pathogen training and Epi-Pen training to faculty and staff?
Did you know?
That we have 2 AED’s and 2 Emergency Oxygen units equipped with both adult and children pads? (One set is in the chair room in the Gym, the other set is in the Arcade hallway.)
Did you know?
That having the AEDs and Oxygen units as well as Faculty/Staff training is part of our commitment to Emergency Response/Disaster Preparedness training?
It is true. Our annual training took place on August 13, 2015 and our faculty and staff, once again, met the requirements for certification for Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and AED use. Included in the curriculum for the day’s class was Blood Borne Pathogens, recognizing and responding to a choking victim, and Epi-Pen Training.
Congratulations to the following for being attentive learners and for becoming certified:
We would like to thank Mr. Roderick S. Wilson of the St. Louis City Fire Department, Firefighter/EMT/BLS Instructor, for his expertise in teaching and making the class fun … while ensuring that we learned some very serious skills.
