ESLRs

As part of our accreditation self-study process for WCEA and WASC, we are reviewing Bishop Conaty-Loretto's Expected School-wide Learning Results (ESLRs) or outcomes. As part of this review, we would like to know your thoughts. What do you think a student of Bishop Conaty-Loretto should know and be able to do upon graduation? Let us know what you think.

Beautification Day







Today, the Parent Association sponsored Bishop Conaty-Loretto’s first annual Beautification Day. Several parents and their daughters came together to build benches in the courtyard for the students. It was a beautiful morning and great fun was had by all. We were able to re-assemble twenty benches using the old Conaty conrete bench-supports that had not seen the light of day since well before the reconstruction of the school in the early 1990s. Several fathers took charge sharing their expertise and talents as the rest of the parents and students pitched in to get the job done. Ms Boyle came by to lend a hand. The beautification project fostered a great sense of pride and accomplishment among all. Special thanks to The Home Depot for their generous donation of lumber and supplies for this project. The day was such a success that plans are in the works for next year… some landscaping improvements or covered storage cage. We hope to you here next fall.
