Thank you to all the parents and school families for the generous
Christmas gift. I appreciate the support and will continue to keep you in my
prayers.

If you have tickets you know you will not sell, please turn them back to the
office, as we don’t have many on hand. Thank you!
K OF C FREE THROW CONTEST: Sunday, January 14th,
at 12:00 noon. Ages 9-14, boys and girls, in the gymnasium.
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.
MEDICATION
AT SCHOOL: We do not have a “stock supply” of
medications for students. You may choose to send in a pain reliever or other
types of medicine for your child. Make sure to clearly mark the container(s),
and send a note giving staff permission to dispense the medication, with
explicit dosage instructions and dosage cups/spoons. These will be locked up in
the office. Sometimes having medicine available here for your child can mean
not having to come after him/her or making a special trip to bring medications.
COLLECTION
ENVELOPES FOR THURSDAY MASS: Each Thursday, the students
have the opportunity to place their offering in the collection. If you need
collection envelopes at home, please let us know & some will be sent home.
We also have them available in the cafeteria for student use.
Please return your folder on MONDAY.
Have a great COLD winter weekend! BRrrrr
