2025-2026 Greek School Welcome Presentation >
Tuesday, February 3, 2026, Three Hierarchs Greek Letters Presentation
On behalf of Fr. John, we extend our heartfelt congratulations and sincere thanks to our parents, students, and teachers for a truly wonderful program. It was a beautiful reflection of the dedication, hard work, and love for our faith, language, and culture that define our Greek School community.
Our students continue to impress us not only with their commitment to Greek School but also with their ability to juggle multiple ministries, academic responsibilities, and regular activities with grace and perseverance. This speaks volumes about their character and the strong support they receive at home and from their teachers.
Parents, THANK YOU for your constant encouragement, sacrifices, and trust!
Teachers, THANK YOU for your patience, passion, and unwavering commitment to nurturing our students.
We are incredibly proud of our students and deeply grateful for the joy and inspiration they bring to our parish!

Greek School Director & Board Chair
Tuesday, January 16, 2026, Vasilopita Celebration
On Tuesday, January 16th, we were delighted to welcome a very special musical guest to our lessons, who enriched the feast of Theofania with the beautiful sounds of the bouzouki. Panagiotis Giannoumis' (PJ) presence brought great joy to our students and enhanced our practical learning experience!
Following the presentation, we gathered for the cutting of the vasilopita - Saint Basil's bread- a meaningful tradition that brings us together in thanksgiving, fellowship, and love.
May the Theofania celebration strengthen our unity and fill our hearts with gratitude!
Την Τρίτη 16 Ιανουαρίου με χαρά καλωσορίσαμε στα μαθήματά μας έναν πολύ ξεχωριστό μουσικό καλεσμένο, ο οποίος εμπλούτισε τη γιορτή των Θεοφανείων με τους όμορφους ήχους του μπουζουκιού! Η παρουσία του Παναγιώτη Γιαννούμη (PJ) έφερε μεγάλη χαρά στους μαθητές μας και ενίσχυσε την πρακτική μας μαθησιακή εμπειρία.
Μετά την παρουσίαση, συγκεντρωθήκαμε για την κοπή της βασιλόπιτας, μιας όμορφης πρωτοχρονιάτικης παράδοσης που μας ενώνει με κοινωνία και αγάπη.
Είθε ο εορτασμός των Θεοφανείων να ενδυναμώνει την ενότητά μας και να γεμίζει τις καρδιές μας με ευγνωμοσύνη!
