In his prayer intention for March, Pope Leo invites us to pray that nations lay down their weapons, adopt diplomacy and justice, and seek true security founded on trust and solidarity among peoples.
Lord of Life,
you shaped every human being in your image and likeness.
We believe you created us for communion, not for war,
for fraternity, not for destruction.
You who greeted your disciples saying, "Peace be with you,"
grant us the gift of your peace
and the strength to make it a reality in history.
Today we lift up our prayer for peace in the world,
asking that nations renounce weapons
and choose the path of dialogue and diplomacy.
Disarm our hearts of hatred, resentment, and indifference,
so we may become instruments of reconciliation.
Help us understand that true security
does not come from control fueled by fear,
but from trust, justice, and solidarity among peoples.
Lord, enlighten the leaders of the nations,
so they may have the courage to abandon projects of death,
halt the arms race,
and place the lives of the most vulnerable at the center.
May the nuclear threat never again dictate the future of humanity.
Holy Spirit,
make us faithful and creative builders of daily peace:
in our hearts, our families,
our communities, and our cities.
May every kind word, every gesture of reconciliation,
and every choice for dialogue be seeds of a new world.
Amen.

The Future is Here: AI, Teens, and Education
Virtual Event: Wednesday, March 25th; 6 - 7:30 p.m.
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly shaping the world our students are learning to navigate. We invite parents to join us for Part 1 of a two-part series on AI and education, designed to help families better understand this evolving landscape. Our first session will be a virtual event providing an accessible introduction to AI — what it is, how teens are encountering it, and what effects it has on the education landscape. Part 2 of this series will take place in the fall and will feature an expert guest speaker who will offer a deeper dive into the broader implications of AI for education and the future our students are preparing to enter.
RSVP and offer questions you would like us to address through this link.
Dress Code: Junior Prom
We will be holding our Junior Prom on Saturday, April 18th. In an effort to make the dance run as smoothly as possible, students are reminded to purchase all dance tickets online prior to the event and turn in all guest passes by the deadline. Please listen carefully when announcements are made, or check mitty.com for further details.
Students are reminded to be sure that they are within the dress code for these end-of-the-year events. Please note that for Senior Ball, athletic shoes are not permitted and skirt length must be at least six inches from the mid-knee (including skirt slit). All dress code and dance policies can be found on the Archbishop Mitty website under "Dances."Students out of dress code will not be permitted into the dances, and parents will be contacted. Considering that these will be special nights for our seniors, it is important that everyone understands the standards expected to enter these dances, so that we can avoid any disruptions or frustration. Please be sure that if you are bringing a guest from another school that they too are within the dress code, so that they are permitted to enter the dance, as well.
As a reminder, students that purchase a ticket for any of our dances are expected to remain until the dance ends and the doors open. For Junior Prom, this means that students will leave at 11:30 p.m. Permission to leave the dance early is only permitted if requested to the Dean's Office in advance or in the event of illness.
Any students with questions regarding the dress code or other dance policies are encouraged to speak with Ms. Lauren Bevilacqua, Dean of Students, in advance of the event.
