You will notice (above) that we are hosting our first home volleyball games tomorrow morning and our girls will play at 9:00 am. What a great show of spirit for these girls for many to show up to cheer them on and show school spirit!!!

Still needed: One School
HEALTH SCREENINGS have been canceled for Monday and moved to Friday, Sept. 30th, due to a death in one of the nurse’s family. We will need 3 volunteers for this day. Please, if you can help out, let us know. God bless!
Good to see and visit with all the wonderful grandparents (and grandparent – subs!). Thanks to all for sharing Mass and an enjoyable morning with us!
Fantasy Night News: When selling tickets please ask the purchaser if they will split the prize in case they do not attend the event that evening – and note this on the ticket stub. Also – please have them fill in their meat preference on the ticket stub. IT LOOKS LIKE WE STILL HAVE ABOUT 30 TICKETS LEFT TO SELL (that we know of) so please let us know if you need any more tickets!
Students’ grades (grades 3-8th) are online and will be updated for the midquarter report by next Friday. You must use your parent login information (sent home last week) to access these grades. OLOS is moving away from paper copies of reports cards and billings. If you do not have internet access, you are always welcome to use our lab computers to check in on your family module. If you absolutely have no other access, and cannot make it to school, we will provide, at your request, a paper copy of grades. We will be sending home a signature slip next Friday, to ensure parents have looked at their children’s grades over next weekend. Students in grades K-2 will receive a paper copy next Friday.
Needed: Home and School officers for the positions of V. President and Secretary. Lynn Kempker is the President and Missy Evers is the Treasurer. Please contact Mrs. Trachsel if you are interested in serving in either of these positions.
August Lunch Billing has been posted online to the family module. When you access the HOMEPAGE of your online account, you will immediately notice a “Billing Balance”. This is the total amount owed or credited to all accounts – this is not just the lunch account. To find out the details about each account click on the “Office” tab, select “Billing”. From there you can sort accounts by child, month, or view all accounts at once. This may seem a little confusing at first, but please take time to familiarize yourself with these accounts and if you have any questions, please call. There will be NO PAPER BILLING for lunch, unless the account falls into arrears. If you don’t have internet access, you can always send a note or call to inquire about your lunch balance (and any other balance, excluding van & school support/tithing payments). Remember – all checks must still be made to individual accounts. For example, you may not pay sports fees and lunches with the same check. Thanks!
SPECIAL THANKS TO… Tim Morff – for the hours and endless hours he has spent at school working on the computers, replacing where needed, installing printers, and just basically getting the whole system up to where it needed to be…also to Wilma Kliethermes and Amy Marriott, who helped Nancy on Wednesday morning getting those yummy cinnamon rolls prepared for Grandparent’s Day. WE COULD NOT DO IT WITHOUT OUR GREAT VOLUNTEERS!!
If you ever have any small items left from prizes from picnics, Happy Meals, or birthday parties that you don’t need, please send them in for Mrs. Massman’s preschool treasure box. Thanks!
CHEER COACH NEEDED: Would you consider sharing of your time and talent to coach the cheer team this year? If you are willing, please contact someone in the office. Thanks!
REPORTERS NEEDED! Would you consider being the parent reporter to update the Friday Notes on volleyball scores and highlights of games? You can email weekly info to rosie@radiowire.net (by 10:00 am Thursdays, please). Let us know if you are willing! Thanks!
Information for the annual March For Life in Washington D. C. was sent home last week for all 7th & 8th graders and their parents. This event will be from Jan 21st, 2012 to Jan. 24th, 2012. Please look this information over and pray over this wonderful opportunity to uphold all rights to life. We are now asking that these forms be turned in by September 28th. The cost depends on the number of students going. Financial help may be available to the students so please just attach a deposit of $50 to the form.
Cookie Dough Kickoff: October 4th at 10:30 am. Orders will be due back on October 17th, and delivery will be on October 26th from 2-5 pm.
Achievement Testing will be on the following days: Wednesday, Sept. 28th, and Monday through Thursday, October 3-6th. We are in need of two volunteer readers for students in the 7th and 8th grades on any or all of these mornings. Also needed: volunteer to bubble in tests (name, birth date, etc), which can be done in any free time before the actual testing dates. Please call the school office with your offer to help. Also mention this opportunity to grandparents and family members – is not hard and may really enjoy it!
Subs needed – 60 college hours preferred. Please contact Mrs. Trachsel for more information.
Last minute scores: The JV Girls volleyball team won their game last night against St. Joseph
Have a great weekend! Remember to return your Friday Folder on Monday. Thank you!
