Dear Dodge East Friends and Family,
There has been much discussion about the need to offer Catholic education for our children through middle school. At this time, we cannot offer our families a choice to continue with a Catholic education for their children past 4th grade. St. Mary Mayville is not big enough to house a middle school nor is it affordable to add on to the existing building. With the new parish collaboration of the Dodge East territory, two possible locations for a middle school were added to the discussions; St. Mary Lomira and Sacred Heart Horicon.
We would like to invite the Dodge East community to a meeting to discuss this plan and to get your input regarding your thoughts and opinions. The meeting will be held Thursday, March 6 at 6:00pm at Sacred Heart.
Agenda items:
- The need to offer our communities a choice for Catholic education through middle school
- At its current state, St. Mary Mayville is not large enough to house a middle school
- The need to establish an offsite satellite school
- Transportation; bussing from St Mary Mayville to satellite school and satellite school to St. Mary Mayville
- Is there an interest in bussing elementary age students to St. Mary Mayville from satellite school?
- Looking for community input from all who are interested
- Pros and cons of Lomira versus Horicon site
- Funding options and viability
- Community support of this project; questions, comments, and concerns
This is an opportunity for our community members to voice their opinions, ask questions, and discuss the possibility of a Catholic middle school. Please invite anyone who has interest in hearing more about this to the upcoming meeting.
We are looking very forward to seeing and hearing from you.
Blessings,
Mary Yauck, Principal, St. Mary Catholic School, Mayville
