Saints Jacinta and Francisco Marto
Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three Portuguese shepherd children from Aljustrel experienced apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da Iria, near Fátima, during a time of war and political turmoil in Portugal. In the first apparition, Mary instructed the children to return on the 13th of each month and to pray the rosary for world peace and the conversion of Russia. The final apparition attracted up to 90,000 people on October 13. Less than two years later, Francisco died of influenza, with his remains later moved to the Fátima basilica. Jacinta also died of influenza in 1920, while cousin Lúcia became a Carmelite nun. Pope Francis canonized Jacinta and Francisco on May 13, 2017, at the shrine, which draws 20 million visitors annually.

Congratulations, SBA Track & Field!
Congratulations to our SBA Track & Field team on an outstanding showing at Regionals! The athletes delivered strong performances across multiple events, showcasing their hard work, determination, and team spirit. Special recognition goes to Angel Permenter, Jalene Robins, Kate Sanders, and Mason Brigham, who qualified for the State Championships in the highly competitive Co-Ed 4x400 meter relay. Their teamwork and speed earned them a well-deserved spot at the next level. Also advancing to State is Elena Truszkowski, whose incredible performance in the 1600-meter run secured her place among the top distance runners in the region. We are so proud of these student-athletes and their coaches for their dedication and grit. Good luck at State—go Eagles!
