Prayer to the Virgin Mary for Protection
O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope.
We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick.
At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain,
with steadfast faith.
You, Our Lady of New York, know what we need.
We are certain that you will provide, so that,
as you did at Cana of Galilee,
joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform ourselves to the Father’s will
and to do what Jesus tells us:
He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us,
through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.
We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God.
Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.

Dear Parents,
 
The last day of school... the closing of one door, and the opening of another.  I want to thank each child for all the warmth, the memories, and the learning that we have shared this school year.
 
To my students, I say THANK YOU! For when I teach, I also learn. This past year we have grown together. A little bit of each of you will always be with me. Always strive to be the BEST that you can be!
 
To the parents, I say THANK YOU for allowing me to be your child’s teacher. It has been a challenging year-end for all of us. I will hold your child in a special place within my heart as they completed 7th grade diligently. May God's love continue to shine on you all. Many thanks for your generous gifts! 
 
Sincerely with love,                                   
  Mrs. Balzofiore                                                 ***** Stay Safe! *****
