Dear Lakeland Catholic Community,
As we approach the holiday season, our hearts are filled with the true spirit of Christmas, a time of reflection, joy, and togetherness.
We reflect on our faith, recognizing that the hope, joy, and peace offered by Christ are invaluable gifts. In our roles as educators, the transformative power of faith shapes our service into a gift for our students and their families. It is through the love and sacrifice of the tiny baby in the manger that we find purpose and meaning in our mission to serve with compassion, grace, and love.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, senior administration, and the central office staff, we extend our warmest wishes to you and your family this Christmas. May your holiday be filled with the joy of family and friends, and may the blessings of the new year bring peace, prosperity, and hope to your lives.
Thank you for your continued support, and may the true meaning of Christmas shine brightly in your hearts.
Merry Christmas, Joyeux Noel
Joe Arruda, Superintendent of Schools
