"It takes every member of a village to raise a child” Nigerian Proverb
This proverb greets us as you enter the front doors of our
wonderful school.
Our Guild provides an opportunity for new and "experienced" parents of SMA
students to meet and build this family and village together.
We hope you will join us as we continue to build the community of St. Mary of
the Annunciation School. The Guild will meet approximately once a month,
offering a different opportunity or event.
Sincerely,
Dawn Masterson, Jeannine Collins
