ECF Year Ends Today marks the final day of ECF classes. Many thanks to the teachers for their dedication and effort. Coordinator, Claudine Kirschner did a marvelous job in taking over for Michele Dirda. Sadly, because of her involvement in the Pastoral Plan of the Diocese, she will not be able to continue in this position next year. We thank her for what she brought to this year s program. Thanks also to the parents who were commendable in getting the kids to class. In spite of a rugged winter we still had a number of children garner attendance awards. 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th Nick Armbrust Maria DeCapua Julia Gulla Lucas Tinter Georgia Kattler Lauren Kattler Charlie DeCapua Bobby Kirschner Dustin Kattler Jason Kodek Justin Kodek 7th/8th Victoria Kattler Martin Kirschner Stephanie Lesnick Joe Hallis Paige Lesnick Classes are complete until September, but church is still in session!
