Fr. McGivney News
APRIL IS 7th  GRADE SHADOW MONTH! If you have a 7th grader interested in McGivney, be sure to visit www.McGivneyGriffins.com/Admissions and print a form to schedule a shadow day. A Shadow Day is a great way for interested students to experience McGivney first hand. Students are paired with a freshman ambassador, issued a laptop for the day, and lunch is on us! They are encouraged to participate in class, use our technology, meet new people, have fun in PE, and be as much of a Griffin as they want to be for the day. Following the Shadow Day, parents and students will have the opportunity to sit down with Principal Scholz for a brief meeting to talk about the day and the school. If you have any questions, please feel free to call the school at 618-855-9010.
