Notes From the Office: Monday, December 3rd, 2018Weekly Updates December 2018 Greetings,
The start of the Advent season is a very special time for our church and school. This is a time to quiet our hearts and be peaceful as we reflect upon the birth of Jesus. During the hustle and bustle of the holidays, this is not always easy to accomplish. Our students and staff will be going to Mass, adoration, and reconciliation the next couple weeks to help them prepare spiritually for Christmas.
Thank you so much for your generous donations during the #igiveCatholic - A Day of Giving. We collected over $4000 in donations. This will allow us to complete needed repairs on the parish and school administrative building. Currently, this is the most pressing need in maintaining buildings on the campus. Again, I truly appreciate the generosity of this church and school.
Lastly, please keep the Bilotta and Griese families in your prayers. Some of their children were involved in a very serious car accident. I am sure these families and children would appreciate your prayers during their time of recovery.
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell

Dear Parents,
Our school will be participating in the SchoolStore program this year. This online program helps our school earn cash without students selling door-to-door, collecting money or delivering products. Over 400 merchants, including Best Buy, Target and WalMart, have joined together to offer up to 50% of sales to our school for shopping through SchoolStore.com.
To shop and support our school, simply go to www.schoolstore.com and select our school.
Participation is key in helping get the word out about our School Store. In January your child will come home with a parent packet requesting you to help them enter email addresses to friends and family. When you enter just 3 email addresses you'll receive a prize code your child can return the next day for a prize. Thank you for your families support of our school
