Study Tips!
1. Find the right spot! Make sure you have good lighting, a comfy chair, and enforce a "no-phone" zone (this takes discipline!) 
2. Create a "product" of your studying! Don't just stare and read notes, but make flash cards, quizlets, doodle notes, recording of your voice, etc
3. Listen to some music- choose your favorite artist and listen to instrumental versions of their songs
4. Create a schedule. Divide up the studying/assignment into smaller chunks. 
5. Re-read from the textbook as you study to reinforce your notes- remember, notes only summarize the content!

"Peace is Built in the Heart"

Pope Leo XIV’s words remind us of a powerful truth: peace doesn’t start in the world around us—it begins within each of us. It is shaped by love, nourished by prayer, and strengthened by our desire to live as Jesus taught.

At Mater Dei Catholic School, we embrace this call to be peacemakers. Pope Leo’s message speaks to everyone, but especially to our children, who are growing into the people God created them to be. When peace lives in our hearts, it flows into our words, our choices, and our relationships.

When every heart becomes a home for peace, then our school, our homes, and our entire community can become places of kindness, forgiveness, justice, and joy. Pope Leo is calling us to be different—to build peace through the way we live, speak, and treat one another each day.

This year, let us journey together as builders of peace—rooted in God’s love, guided by His truth, and strengthened by His mercy.
