HAPPY LABOR DAY WEEKEND! Enjoy the three-day weekend! Spend some quality time together as a family, rest, relax and we will see you Tuesday! NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY!

Next Friday, September 7, is the PTO TAILGATE PARTY! Planning Committee Meeting– September 4 at 6:00 in the K-3 Campus Cafeteria.

Please mark your calendar for a fun night with family and friends. If you have not turned in your RSVP form yet, please get that in ASAP, so that the PTO will know how much pizza to  order! Everything is FREE and will begin at 5:30!

Mid-Term Reports will go home with students next Friday.  Although it is still early in the year, teachers like to stay in close communication with parents about how their child is progressing. 

Thank you to Fr. Bakka  for celebrating Mass with us this week. Thank you to Fr. Pat Bittel, Fr. John Vaughan, Fr. John Meredith, and Fr. Tony Jones for visiting our classrooms.

Thank you to Noah Brooks, Jolee Hayden, Caroline Clements, and Kristen Ebelhar for the Holy Card donations.
