After leaving Norwalk St. Paul in 2015, I continued to teach for the Toledo Catholic Diocese at my home parish of Mansfield St. Peter's in 2016. Since then, I have been a Subject Matter Expert (SME) for Science Education at The Ohio State University's College of Education and a University Supervisor of Field Experiences and Internships at Ashland University. I have always felt that NCS is a very special place, and I am blessed to have the opportunity to return. I am truly honored to be teaching Physics and Chemistry, along with Anatomy and Physiology and AP Biology.

In my free time I enjoy walking my dogs, painting, knitting, and other creative or crafting activities.

My name is Sydney Moore and I am a 2019 Graduate of Heidelberg University. Previously, I was teaching 3rd grade at Rosary Cathedral Catholic School in Toledo, Ohio. This summer, I decided to make the move back home and am very fortunate to have the opportunity to work for my Alma Mater, Norwalk Catholic School (2015). I’ve grown up my entire life in the Norwalk community and am excited for my future here! When not teaching, I love to spend time outside doing whatever I can in the sun. At Heidelberg, I was a four-year letter winner in volleyball and am currently the 8th grade girl’s coach which I am thrilled for. Volleyball is a huge passion of mine and I’m looking forward to helping young girls learn to love the game in the same place that I did! As the school year is now approaching, I am getting anxious to meet all of my co-workers and students for what will surely be a year to remember!

New Teacher Spotlight! Please join us in welcoming Mr. Horacio Quezada who will be teaching Junior High & High School Theology. Here is a short message from Mr. Quezada: I was born the 10th child of a very devout Catholic family of 12 children. I was raised in a small but beautiful and quaint town in Northern Mexico. Family necessities brought us all to California, and eventually God led me all this way to Norwalk, Ohio. Since I was little, I have always had a spiritual and intellectual inclination towards my Catholic faith. I hope that as a teacher I will be able to share my spiritual and intellectual interests with my students as well as their parents, while simultaneously learning from their own faith journey. I am excited to be a part of this new family!
New Teacher Spotlight! Please join us in welcoming Miss. Jacqui Mullins who will be in the 4th grade classroom. Here is a short message from Miss. Mullins: My name is Jacqui Mullins and this will be my first year teaching. I graduated from Bowling Green State University with a major in Early Childhood Education, and completed the 4th and 5th grade endorsement. I have played volleyball my entire life and my team won the state championship my senior year at Huron High School. Since then, I have been coaching at St. Paul for the past four years. I am very passionate about the game and enjoy sharing that passion with my players. I spent my childhood growing up in Collins but moved to Huron a few years ago where I currently reside. In my spare time, you can find me with my family, friends, or playing with my dog, Herm. I recently got engaged to my boyfriend, Tyler of 4 years. We are planning on getting married in the fall of 2022. I am so excited to meet my students and jump start my career!

We've gotten several questions on how the community can show their appreciation for our local health care heroes or cheer up patients and residents at Fisher-Titus Medical Center, Norwalk Memorial Home, and the Carriage House. In order to minimize contact and practice social distancing, we’re excited to be doing a virtual art drive. Creations can be sent to ArtDrive@ftmc.com and they will be printed and displayed in various locations at Fisher-Titus. Some ideas to get you started are:
◊ Sidewalk chalk drawings
◊ Uplifting cards
◊ Window displays
Pose for a photo with your art or snap a photo of your creation on its own. We can’t wait to see what you come up with and we are so grateful for the support our community has shown us these last few weeks! Thank you!

The Norwalk Police Department has released the following statement regarding the investigation of the incident shared yesterday afternoon.Please continue to stress to your children the potential risks presented by strangers. From the Norwalk Police Department: “The Norwalk Police Department has identified a sixty-three-year-old Norwalk woman as the person who attempted togive a ride to the 11-year-old Main Street School student last week. During the investigation information was received which lead investigators to believe this was a case of mistaken identity with no criminal intent on the part of the woman. The woman was contacted and interviewed. She was very embarrassed and apologetic. She was on her way to a rental property she owns when she saw a boy who she thought was her tenant’s grandson. She offered him a ride because of the cold weather. She even described getting out of her car, as the witness reported. When she arrived at her tenant’s residence,her grandson was already there, and she realized her mistake. She did not see the social media posts about the investigation yesterday and was not aware the incident was reported to the police. This case is unfounded, and the investigation closed. However, this type of situation presents parents and teachers with an opportunity to reinforce safety rules and talk about ways to avoid potentially dangerous situations.”

Friends for the Future Faithful Flyers
Our Kick-Off Weekend is Feb. 1st & 2nd.
Friends for the Future is our annual fund which provides necessary operating funds to the school for day-to-day operations. NCS is able to keep tuition affordable because of a "three-legged stool" financial model with roughly 1/3 of the cost to educate coming through tuition, 1/3 from supportive parishes, and 1/3 provided from generous donations to Friends for the Future and other programs.
Yes -- we do humbly ask you to consider 2 Commitments this year to Norwalk Catholic Schools. Please make a commitment to today and tomorrow.
The Norwalk Catholic School and Norwalk City School District received the following important announcement from the Norwalk Police Department:
“The Norwalk Police Department is investigating a report of a female who asked an eleven-year-old male to get into her vehicle on two separate days last week. The child’s father reported the incident to the Norwalk Police Department shortly after 3:30 p.m. yesterday afternoon. The incidents happened on Wednesday, January 22 and Thursday, January 23, in the afternoon immediately after school when the child was walking home.
Information indicates the boy left the school and was walking home on East Main Street. A vehicle pulled into the parking lot at 124 East Main Street (Domino’s Corporate Offices). A female, described by a witness, as being in her late 50's or early 60's and having a medium build, medium height and shoulder length gray hair, then exited the car and said something to the boy. She got back into her car and proceeded through the Domino’s Store Resource Center parking lot, turning left (south) on Corwin Street. The incident remains under investigation. If anyone in the area of East Main Street and Corwin Street has video surveillance systems that may have captured the incident, or you have any information that could assist with the investigation, please contact the Norwalk Police Department at 419-668-3311 or 419-663-6780.
Parents are asked to remind their children never to go anyplace or get into a car with anyone without checking with a parent.
As a precautionary measure, additional officers, both uniform and plain-clothes, will be patrolling for the next several days.”
Please talk to your children about being safe around strangers. The Norwalk Catholic School and Norwalk City School District will remain in contact with the Norwalk Police Department throughout the investigation.

More SPH students volunteering their time this summer. The entire week of June 10, Alexander Stine and Christopher Kocher, donated some 40 hours of their time as camp counselors. They were officially called "Leadership Interns" at the Camp Invention program hosted at Edison Middle School in Berlin Heights. The camp is a STEM Summer Program that is sponsored by the National Inventors Hall of Fame and is for grades K-6. It is led by local teachers, including our own Keri Zendejas!
As elementary students, Alex and Chris attended the camp for many Summers and when they graduated from being campers after 6th grade have been invited back to be counselors every year since. It has been a great opportunity for them to give back by working with the youth of our community. There were a number of St. Paul elementary students who participated as campers, as well.
