The weather is trending very cold this week so please make sure your child has a warm coat/hat/gloves to wear down to the church.
Tonight: Movie Night
Don’t forget tonight is Family Movie Night! Come in your jammies and join your friends for a fun night watching a great movie! There will be lots of yummy concessions for sale and you are welcome to bring along dinner and snacks, too. See this flyer for details.
Uniform Closet
Please be respectful of the Pre-K program and their schedule when visiting the uniform closet in the Pre-K building (former Convent).
You may easily visit the uniform closet before or after school hours or by requesting a special time to visit during the school day. If you decide to visit the uniform closet on the spur of the moment, please check in with Mrs. Sager at the front office and she will call Pre-K teachers to see if this is an appropriate time.
Thank you for your kind consideration of our littlest students and their teachers!
Picture Retake Orders Due by Thursday
If your child had their picture taken on the make-up/retake day, please note that orders are due back this Thursday, Nov 15th.
