Holy Week and Academic Honors

Dear Atonement Family, 

We are sending out this week’s Crusader Times a day early so that, beginning Holy Thursday, we can leave academics behind for a time and enter deeply into the high feast of the Christian year. 

Before we do, however, I have some exciting news. Mrs. Powell has informed me that final calculations have been made and we are able to name the recipients of the Academy’s two highest academic honors. At the 2020 commencement exercises, we will recognize Mr. Emilano Sanchez as our 2020 valedictorian, and Mr. Franco Navarrete as our 2020 salutatorian. Congratulations to these gentlemen, to their teachers, and to the senior class that has spurred them to excellence over the years. 

What a timely reminder that life goes on, and so will we! God bless you and your family as you draw near to Christ this Easter Season. 

Stay steady, Crusaders. Our Lady of The Atonement—pray for us! 

Your servant, 

Matthew David Watson
Head of School
