We pray you have a Christmas break filled with rest, joy, and peace. May this special season bring you moments of warmth and happiness, surrounded by the love and comfort of those who matter most.

We acknowledge these past weeks of labour uncertainty have been difficult to navigate. Thank you for your grace, patience, and understanding during this time. We truly appreciate your support. Please know we are dedicated to keeping both staff and families informed, and we will provide updates as soon as new information is available.

A few reminders as all of our minds shift to Christmas time:

• Congratulations to Father Mercredi High School grade 10 student Mikaela Pacoma who designed our Fort McMurray Catholic Schools Christmas Card.
• Please see this message from Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides.
• Classes resume on January 6, 2025. 
• If there are any updates in regards to the current CUPE Local 2559 job action we will share information with families in a timely manner. 

“The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.” - Luke 2:10

God bless,

Fort McMurray Catholic Schools
