Look Ahead Sept 8, 2025
We had so much fun hearing all the stories about your summer adventures ????
Pope Francis: "We must fan the flame of hope that has been given us, and help everyone to gain new strength and certainty by looking to the future with an open spirit, a trusting heart and far-sighted vision."
St. Jerome Parish Bulletin is attached...
With all the news that’s fit to print from the parish, including Father James' Pastor’s letter.

The Bus
Yeah, it's been a challenge!
Construction and traffic have created mayhem right across Brampton.
STOPR is working on adjustments to get your kids to school on time.
Sign up here to get notices of changes in the bus arrival times and peace of mind: https://www.stopr.ca/subscribe-for-alerts
Letters requesting courtesy bus seats for ineligible walkers will be sent home after September 15th.
STOPR usually processes and grants them in late September or the first week of October, based mostly on safety needs.
School Cash Online
All school purchases are made using School Cash Online

Parking and Stopping
We remain a priority school for Traffic control.
Parking in the No Parking, Stopping in the No Stopping and pulling into the parking lot or Fire Lane during drop off and dismissal times can result in significant tickets. The camera doesn't lie. ????
International and Indigenous Languages
It's never bad to know a second (third?) language.
Languages offered and enrollment details are attached.
