CATHOLIC SCHOOLS’ WEEK IS HERE!!! – Jan 30- Feb. 5. We have many activities planned, beginning with Mass and a carry in meal this Saturday, Jan. 30^th. Details are included in today’s folder. Please make special note of the items needed from home on some of the days. Again, do not feel like you have to send in items on all of the designated days – one or two is fine. We just want everyone to know that even if you sent in your sign up late or not at all, we encourage ALL STUDENTS and families to attend this Mass, and for students to sit with their class in the front of church. We have been told that Bishop Gaydos will be celebrating this special Mass, due to the fact that Father Pat has been ill. Let us welcome Bishop Gaydos with a great kick-off to Catholic School’s Week.

ITALIAN FEAST: PLEASE TURN IN ANY UNSOLD TICKETS. We are running short of ADULT tickets in the office.

THE 1/2^ND GRADERS will be going to Miller Co. Nursing Home this Wednesday, for CSW Community Day. Thanks to the five drivers – Pam Groose, Kim Evers, Emily Schulte, Ashley Kempker, & Dianne Goetz!

JUST RECEIVED:  $18.97 from the Gerbes Community Rewards program. This is our quarterly payment with only 6 participants. Just think what we might earn if many more signed up. See end of notes for further details.
