contact Ashley Kempker or Rosie in the office. As always, we expect all school
parents to help prepare for this fundraiser, either by helping in the afternoon
or the evening.

chaperones as they go on this pilgrimage. The students attending from OLOSS are
Macy Adrian, Sara Beck, Gracie Evers, Tori Evers, Kayla Bond, Kyle Bond, Hannah
Evers, Devin Haeffner, Elizabeth Kliethermes, Jonathan Lepper, & Trenton

REMINDER TO PARENTS OF STUDENTS BRINGING LUNCHES FROM HOME: Please see that your child’s
lunch has everything they need for their meal – drinks, plates, utensils,
condiments, napkins. The lunch program cannot afford to supply these things if
the student is not buying the daily lunch.
DEADLINE FOR FRIDAY NOTES: Thursdays, 9:00 am. All non-school related flyers
need to be copied ahead of time on paper. The school cannot afford to supply paper for outside
events). Upon approval by the principal,
the information will then be placed in the Friday folder as a courtesy. It is
not appropriate for the school to send out extraneous information that can be
handled other ways. Also, if you have items for the Friday notes, please write
these items up, send them in, or email them to rosie@radiowire.net (call to let me know
you have emailed please). I don’t mind doing a little editing and rewording,
but the bulk of the item should be outlined with details.
BALL
SCORES: We have a couple weeks of scores to report due to
the shortened week last week. Last Thursday, Jan. 12th, the girls
lost against St. Martin, with a final score of 22-41; the boys won last week,
with a final score of 37-30 against St. Francis, Xavier, Taos. Last night we
had a great crowd for the girls playing at home. They lost their first game
against IC, JC, 11-25, and won their second game against Honey Creek, ending
out the game at 25-17. The boys played at St. Martin against St. Thomas last
night, and beat them out by a wide margin – 42-22. Both Cougar teams are having
good seasons, winning many, losing a few. We are very proud of you all! Go
teams!
