mission of education since 1903; and

Beaverton campus, at Valley Catholic Early Learning School,
Valley Catholic Elementary School, Valley Catholic Middle School,
Valley Catholic High School and Valley Catholic Music School; and
  Whereas the Sisters of Saint Mary of Oregon are on a mission of
elder care, achieved, in part, through the continuous operation

  Whereas the Sisters of Saint Mary of Oregon are women of
prayer, living in simplicity and sisterly love; and
