DUE TO VALENTINE’S DAY falling on Ash Wednesday (day of fast and abstinence), the Valentine’s parties are scheduled for Friday, Feb. 9th from 2:15 – 3:15 pm.
CATHOLIC SCHOOLS WEEK is here! We will be celebrating themed days all week next week, and end with an all-school Mass on Sunday, February 4th at 10:00 am. You will find an updated schedule in today’s folder. We are looking forward to a great week!
THE STUDENT COUNCIL is once again sponsoring Valentine Grams – with candy or a salty treat for $1.00 each. More information is in this folder. If you need more copies, please contact the office. All orders are due by Feb. 6th. Thank you for supporting the Student Council!
ART CLUB: Rescheduled: The first meeting of our newly formed art club will be Monday, Feb. 5th, from 3:30 – 4:30 pm. Mrs. Hoecker sent out permission slips last week to all 5th through 8th graders. If your child is interested, and you have misplaced the form, please call the office or contact Mrs. Hoecker.
DANCE TO BE RESCHEDULED: Due to a scheduling conflict, the Morgan County Line/Pizza Kwik event originally scheduled for March 9th is being rescheduled to an alternate date. More information will be available soon! You may discard the flyers sent home last week. Sorry about any confusion this may cause.
OLOS SCIENCE FAIR: Our local science fair has been tentatively rescheduled to Friday, Feb. 9th (from Jan. 19th). All 5th through 8th graders are working hard on getting their projects finished up. We hope to have them on display before our Valentines’ parties that day. We look forward to seeing all their interesting projects!
SHOW ME SUDS Fundraiser begins today, Friday, January 26th. If order forms are ready, you will find them in this folder. Otherwise, they will be sent separately with your child on Friday. This is a great opportunity to help our school and parish youth by selling and purchasing quality laundry detergents, dish soaps, dishwasher pods, and dryer sheets. Order forms with payments must be returned by Friday, February 19th. All products will be available for pickup on Sunday, February 25th. Contact Joan Doerhoff or the school office for more information. Thank you for your continued support in our school and parish youth!
CHANGE IN LUNCHES: The lunches for Monday and Tuesday have been switched from what was previously published, as you will see on the new lunch calendar found in the folder today. Monday we will have the Chinese chicken meal and Tuesday we will have the corndog meal.
SCHOOL CLOSING: Any emergency early dismissal or closing of the school due to weather will be announced by parent alert (text, email) and through social media, as well as over area television stations. Parents should not call the school office during inclement weather conditions to learn if the school is closing early. This unnecessarily ties up our phone lines for emergency communications. A phone call into school during this time will delay the process of getting our communications out to all families. Please note that afternoon extended care services are not available in the event of early dismissal due to weather or other emergencies.
