Director's Corner - OCHS Football Aces

Congratulations to our football aces on their Semi-State win Friday night against the Danville High School Admirals. Way to go coaches and players on an excellent victory over a formidable opponent. Almost as impressive as the game was the number of Aces fans in attendance. There certainly were more wearing Aces green in the stadium than wearing Admiral blue. Way to go Aces Nation for driving the distance and braving the cold to cheer our football Aces to victory.
Now it's onto the state championship game against the Newport Central Catholic Thoroughbreds at 3:00 PM on Friday at L. T. Smith Stadium on the campus of Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
With great confidence about the outcome of the game, I met with the Principals last week to discuss how we would approach the State Championship game that would occur on a school day at 3:00 PM. After careful deliberation and review of many scenarios and options, the decision was made to close on Friday, December 3, 2010 across Owensboro Catholic Schools. Our intention is to make-up the day prior to the end of the school year. At the point the plan is finalized, it will be communicated to all members of the OCS family.

Please Note - OCS Central Office and SCRIP SUCCE$$ will also be closed on Friday.

As publicized, SCRIP SUCCE$$ will be open on Saturday, December 4th from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM at the OCES K-3 Campus.

I appreciate all you do to help us fulfill our mission of excellence in Catholic faith formation and academics. As always, your comments and insights are important to me. I can be reached via phone at 852-8028 and email at ken.rasp@owensborocatholic.org.
God's Peace!
