Dear Our Lady of Mount Carmel Families, 

        As I write this, I am amazed at the fact that we have completed two- thirds of our school year. Registration for the 2021- 2022 school year is underway and we have entered the Lenten season and begin our anticipation of the Resurrection with thoughts of how much we have lost, but also of how much we should be thankful for. Now more than ever our Catholic faith must be the bedrock of our very foundation. We at Mount Carmel have worked hard in the face of arguably the greatest challenge faced by any generation in recent times. Teachers, Parents,Staff and Students have come together to continue the great tradition of Catholic Education here at Mount Carmel in the face of a year long pandemic. The teamwork shown by all those collective groups is what made us succesful and allowed us to persevere. I am so proud of what we have accomplished since March 17 of last year. I am so proud of the hard work and dedication of our teachers and staff, the patience and thankfulness of our parents and the courage and strength of our wonderful students. As we exit the Winter season and look forward to the rebirth that comes with Spring, we await our full rebirth and the day that we will all be fully back into our building as a family again. It's been a long road, but we are getting there. We will get there together. I remind you that we are here for you and your family with whatever assistance we can offer. We are but a phone call away. I ask that we continue to work hard and ensure that our children stay happy and healthy. The children are our greatest gift and we must do all we can to provide them with any resources at our disposal to ensure their success. We hope that this Easter season will bring your closer to our Lord Jesus Christ and also with his love bring us closer to ending this long and challenging year. We hope that you also choose to continue at OLMC for the 2021-2022 school year. We hope you choose to stay a part of our special family and continue to put your faith in Catholic Education and Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Be Well and Be Safe.

Regards and Blessings,
Mr. John Musto, Principal
