Hello Friends!!!

We hope that you had a lovely weekend!  Here is a look ahead at our week! 

 

Looking ahead:  Saint Projects (the construction paper banner) is due on October 18th.  All information regarding the project was handed out during Back to School Night.  If your child finishes and would like to turn in their project early, that is absolutely fine!  

Our Saint Parade will be held on the morning of October 29th, along with the PreK and K Halloween parade.  Saint Costumes should be simple.  Please do not feel you need to go out and buy one.  Costumes could be made with old bathrobes, sheets, dresses, etc.  Be creative!  Costumes can also be brought in early! Please make sure all parts of costumes are labeled with students' names!

We will also be wearing our costumes to First Friday Mass on November 1st in honor of All Saints Day. 

If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact your child's homeroom teacher!
