SCHOOL PICTURES are scheduled for Wednesday, October 14th. Preordering information is in today’s folder. You will not receive a paper order form – pictures must be ordered through the online portal. This will be a DRESS UP for school picture day, but jeans may be worn. We will begin taking photos at 7:00 am.
NO SCHOOL: There will be no school on FRIDAY, OCT. 2ND.
Our teachers will be attending a Diocesan Professional Development Day.
EARLY RELEASE: We will begin to release at 11:30 with final dismissal at 12:00 on FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9TH for Fantasy night set up. All are welcome to come help us prepare for the event.
SERVER TRAINING is scheduled for Wednesday, September 30th at 6 pm in the church. This training is for
any new youth, 3rd grade and older, as well as a
refresher for current servers. Parents, please encourage your children to
become altar servers at weekend Mass. This is a wonderful opportunity for them
to grow in their faith, learn responsibility and actively participate in the
life of our parish. We are desperately in need of more altar servers for
weekend Masses. Please notify the parish or school office if your child would
like to begin taking part in the meaningful ministry.
FANTASY NIGHT NEWS: Fantasy Night will be held on the second Saturday of October| October 10th. Tickets are available NOW from the office. We have over 100 remaining tickets for sale. Ticket price is $150. Work list was in last week’s Friday folder. If you are unable to work, please find a replacement. If you know of any parish members who would be willing to help with Fantasy Night, please let school office know.
LADY COUGAR VOLLEYBALL: Our volleyball girls played their first games on their home court this past Thursday. The first games were played against Immanuel Lutheran, and we fell short 9-25, 5-25, 13-25 the second set of games they played St. George Warriors and lost 10-25, 18-25, 20-25. We had our Cheer Squad onsite for the first game- and they were TERRIFIC! They added so much fun to the evening. Thank you for supporting our Lady Cougars! They played Thursday, September 24th, at Trinity Lutheran School at 7:00 & 8:00 pm. GOOD LUCK LADY COUGARS!
CEMETERY LIGHTS: The school is accepting donations for the lighting of the cemetery for all Saints/All Souls Day. Last year we placed 1800 lights. Cost per hundred is approximately $35- $40. Please send your donation in a marked envelope. Thank you so very much!
AS THE WEATHER COOLS remember that students may only wear solid navy, white or khaki sweaters in the classroom or at church. No sweatshirts or hoodies except on the playground/outside. And please remember… ALL LENGTH REQUIREMENTS still apply on Dress Down Days!
TRUNK OR TREAT: We will once again offer a “Trunk or Treat” event for the students on Friday, October 30th, as part of their Halloween Walk. If you would like to participate in the Trunk or Treat, please let school office staff know. If someone you know would like to participate, please let them know to plan for approximately 70-75 trick or treaters.
HALLOWEEN COSTUMES: As you begin thinking about Halloween costumes for our “Halloween Walk”, please keep in mind that we don’t want to scare any of our little people, so no scary or gory costumes, no fake blood, axes, etc. Let’s keep it light and fun! Please send a bucket or bag to collect goodies at the Trunk or Treat.
