Dear St. Ferdinand School Families, April 6, 2021 We hope that you and your loved ones had a blessed Easter. This Easter season is especially poignant as our school community is undergoing a transition toward consolidation with nearby schools. We want to take this opportunity to address recent questions from some parents about the feasibility of keeping the school open.

Dear ADLA Community: In a video message today, Senior Director and Superintendent of Catholic Schools Paul Escala shares an update on our Catholic schools reflecting on the challenges of this past year recognizing the commitment and resiliency of our Catholic school communities during the pandemic. We invite you to watch the video and share this important message with your parish, school and ministries. Let us continue to pray for the students, families, teachers and staff in our Catholic schools as they face the challenges ahead through hard work resilience, dedication and grace. May God’s blessing be with all of you this Holy Week as we prepare for the celebration of the resurrection our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ this Easter.

La Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles alienta encarecidamente a los católicos a recibir una vacuna COVID-19 segura y eficaz por nosotros mismos, nuestros seres queridos y el bien común. Si algunos fieles optan por no vacunarse por motivos de conciencia, el Vaticano dice que esas personas “deben hacer todo lo posible para evitar ... convertirse en vehículos de transmisión del agente infeccioso ".

The Archdiocese of Los Angeles strongly encourages Catholics to receive a safe and effective COVID 19 vaccine for the sake of ourselves, our loved ones, and the common good. If some of the faithful choose not to take the vaccine for reasons of conscience, the Vatican says those persons “must do their utmost to avoid … becoming vehicles for the transmission of the infectious agent.” It is important for all of us as clergy to share this message and encourage our faithful to receive the COVID 19 vaccine when able, so as to ensure the health and safety of our parish communities. We must also help those who chose not to take the vaccine to take the proper precautions to limit transmission.

Attached is the Note of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith on the Morality of using Some Anti-Covid-19 Vaccines for your guidance.
