1 GATOR GAZETTE Volume 26 Issue 7 March 1, 2013 HOLY NAME OF JESUS SCHOOL 6325 CROMWELL PLACE NEW ORLEANS, LA 70118-6260 Inside this issue: Dear Parents: I would like to share the following letter, which was read at all Masses in the Archdiocese on the first weekend in Lent, from Archbishop Gregory M. Aymond on our Lenten journey: “Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ: Last Wednesday we began our 40 day Lenten journey. It is a sacred time when God calls us not only to recognize the goodness in our hearts, but also to face honestly those actions and attitudes in our lives that need to change in order for us to embrace more deeply our call to discipleship. I encourage you individually and as a parish family to hear and respond to God's call to conversion and new life during Lent through prayer and penance. In the Archdiocese of New Orleans, we have designated 2013 as a "Year of Family and Faith." Pope Benedict XVI recently reminded us that faith in Christ must be handed on within the family and our faith must give direction to family life. After Mass today, in this spirit of "Family and Faith", each family will be offered a booklet to be used for discussion on how we can grow stronger in family life and a deeper relationship with Jesus. Please take one home and use it for discussion. As we focus on "Family and Faith" this Lent, I suggest a few other things for your consideration: 1. It is an opportunity to reserve Sunday for quality time with our family and to go to Mass together. 2. For the next 40 days, perhaps we could silence our cell phones more often and shut down the computer, giving us more time as a family to talk together and to pray a blessing before meals or before bedtime. 3. In order to enter into the Lenten call to conversion, perhaps our families could attend a Penance Service and experience God's gift of mercy and forgiveness? Whatever your Lenten practices, I promise to pray for you daily that this season of repentance will help you and your family undergo a change of heart and rise to new life with Jesus as we prepare to celebrate his resurrection. May God bless you and those whom you hold in your heart during this sacred 40 day journey. Wishing you God's blessings, I am Sincerely in Christ, Most Reverend Gregory M. Aymond Archbishop of New Orleans” Sincerely, Mrs. Courtney Wolbrette, M.Ed. Principal March 9—PTC Spring Fling– 7:00 P.M.-HNJ Basement March 13-Community Dinner-6:30 P.M.

Faith, Family, Foundation...for over 100 years. Holy Name of Jesus School On January 28 the middle school students and teachers welcomed Ms. Jill Egle, an intellectually disabled adult, as a speaker on the impact of being called “retarded.” Jill was born in Louisiana, and lived and worked for many years in Washington, D.C. In her visit with us, she described the way in which the “R” word is used to bully and belittle people. It was even more impressive to hear some of the ways in which she worked to change thinking on a bigger stage—State and Federal government. Jill showed herself to have many abilities, in spite of her handicap. Through her work for The Arc of Northern Virginia, she was able to campaign for the removal of the word “retarded” from both Federal and Virginia State legislation. We are all familiar with the word “retarded,” and its stereotype of a person without talents or abilities. Jill, although she has a low IQ, has been able to reach a large audience through her talent for advocacy and public speaking. In her the students were able to see a human being with feelings, with knowledge of the hurt that being called “retard” can inflict. Her message included the wish that these students, no matter what the obstacles, accept themselves and others for who they are, and believe in themselves as capable. It was a privilege to host this passionate advocate for all people with disabilities. You can learn more about Jill and her work at www.jillegle.com.

Please note deadline dates in Calendar of Events on Page 1. HNJ Community Dinners Would you like to feel more connected to your HNJ Church community? Do you ever wonder about the people sitting in the pews all around you at Mass? Would you like to do more than just pass through the doors to fulfill your weekly obligation? Or would you simply like to have someone else cook dinner one night? If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, we have an opportunity for you! We are offering an opportunity to skip the dinner dishes at home, and join your fellow parishioners for dinner at HNJ school instead. Where: HNJ School (parking available in the school yard) When: Wednesday, March 13 at 6:30 pm Who: Anyone who wants to be part of our community Cost: None!!! www.hnjschool.org From the Admissions Department... If you know of someone interested in Holy Name for their child, please have them contact Mrs. Gail Sehulster, Admissions Director, at 861-1466, or via e-mail at gsehulster@hnjschool.org, for more information or to schedule a tour. 5 On the night of February22, the Beta held their second Parents’ Night Out. Thought the weather looked threatening, it ended up being fine and so the children and Betas got to have lots of fun outside in the yard for many activities. The evening was a huge success. Thank you, parents, for sending your children to have a fun night with us. Our next fund raiser is for 4th – 7th graders on Friday March 22nd. Fun sporting events are scheduled and we hope to have many come for a night of fun for the older students. The Betas plan to participate in the Walk for the Hungry, sponsored by Bread for the World New Orleans on Saturday, March 2. This walk is to show awareness to those who go hungry here in our community and around the world. The Betas are gearing up for the state convention, preparing for the competitions that will take place in Lafayette in May. www.hnjschool.org 6 2012-13 Parents’ Annual Giving Drive The 2012-13 PAG Drive is well under way and we are entering our half-way mark! Many thanks to . and Mrs. Michael Daly for serving as this year’s chairs, and we are very grateful for their service to the PAG! This year the gap is $700.00. Please, be as generous as you can be to help us maintain our building! Holy Name of Jesus School was founded in 1891 and classes in our current school building first began on January 3, 1933. Holy Name has educated thousands of children throughout the Greater New Orleans Area. Many of our current students are “legacy” students: their parents, and maybe even their grandparents and great grandparents attended Holy Name. In a city that cherishes its traditions, we, too, cherish the traditions that make Holy Name so special. We are still operating in the same building built all those years ago, located in a National Historic District of New Orleans, and we are very proud of our beautiful building. But old buildings need constant attention and repairs to keep them running smoothly and functioning in a modern world; after all, our school building is 80 years old! For instance, our boiler, which is original to the building and has been repaired over the years will need to be replaced in the immediate future at a cost of approximately $65,000. Another major item in need of replacement is the chiller, which will cost approximately $55,000.00. As you can see, like a beautiful old home, our beautiful old school building is expensive to maintain! We strive to provide a comfortable, safe learning environment for our students, and we ask that you consider the expense of providing perpetual maintenance and repair to our beautiful, historic building. This is your children’s school building, and your school building, where your children spend much of their time, to learn and grow each day, and to flourish. We are aware that there are many financial challenges for many of us and that meeting the “gap” will be a burden for some. Please understand that we are grateful for any gift you can give to the PAG this year. One point we would like to emphasize is PARTICIPATION—many grant makers look at the “buy-in” by the stakeholders (that is you) when they consider grant proposals. Please keep that in mind when considering your gift and participation this year. Your donation can be made in one lump sum, or spread out over the course of the entire school year, over a ten-month period. Pledges may also be paid in monthly installments via automatic credit card payments. Your tax-deductible gift will make a significant impact on the maintenance of our school building. If you have misplaced your card, you may log on to Edline and download a new one, or visit the Holy Name of Jesus School website, www.hnjschool.org, and download another pledge form, or access our secure giving site on our home page, via Pay Pal, and make your payment there. If you have any questions at all about the gap, please feel free to contact Parents’ Annual Giving Drive Coordinator Rosalie Tomeny at 861-9709, or via e-mail at rtomeny@hnjschool.org. You may also contact Parents’ Annual Giving Drive Chairs, Suzie and Mike Daly, at 866-4410, or via e-mail at suziedardisdaly@hotmail.com. May God bless you for your generosity to Holy Name of Jesus School! www.hnjschool.org 7 Parents’ Annual Giving Drive (Continued) Following is a listing of our donors who have made their pledge to the 2012-13 Drive.

Children are precious. When they are sick or injured, it makes our hearts hurt; and we want to do whatever we can to comfort them. The 7th grade class has participated in a Tiny Tim project to help bring cheer to sick or injured children in their time of need. Tiny Tim is a poor, sickly character in A Christmas Carol who will die if he does not receive treatment. Because Scrooge changes his ways and offers his help, Tiny Tim lives. The 7th graders have followed Scrooge’s new path by making fringed blankets that will offer children some consolation during their illnesses or recovery from their injuries. Making these blankets will benefit both the students and the children. God bless us all as Tiny Tim says. Fun in Art Class!! Gator Run!!!
