Invite Family and Friends to Visit St. Theresa's
|
The number one way new students find St. Theresa School is from our families sharing their positive experiences. We'd like to encourage you to share and invite new families to come and visit St. Theresa for our Open Houses and throughout the month of February.
If a family you invite comes to the Open House Jan. 31, Feb. 1, or (snow date) Feb. 8, or visits the school for a tour or Shadow Day during the month of February AND turns in (to Mrs. LaFrenierre in the office) the Open House postcard with your student's name and grade on it when they sign in, you will be in a drawing for a white Acer Chromebook C670 on March 1, 2016.
Each student will receive 3 Open House posts cards on Monday to bring home for you to share. Write your student's name and grade on the back where it asks who we can thank for your visit today. Additional postcards will be available in the office and the lobby. Please remind your guests to bring the post card to the office when they sign in for their visit.
Only one name may be listed on a post card. Guests may only turn in one post card per inviting family.
You will be helping others learn about our great community, and you will help grow St. Theresa's family. If the family signs its tuition agreement and attends St. Theresa School, you will receive a
signing bonus of $250 towards your tuition payment for next year.
CCD families from St. Theresa will receive a $750 tuition discount if they sign their Tuition Agreements b
y March 15!
Thank you for celebrating St. Theresa School!

St. Theresa's 29th Annual Basketball Tournament
Sign-up today to volunteer! People to run the score board are a special additional need for this weekend!
|
Hello St. Theresa School Parents and Alumni,
St. Theresa will be hosting a Basketball Tournament for teams from Catholic schools in the area. The tournament is a great fundraiser for our school.
The proceeds help cover the operating
costs of the school,
they do not go to the school basketball teams. A successful Tournament benefits all of us. We also want to show our best hospitality to our visiting teams and their families.
To be successful, the tournament needs parents to help collect admission fees, sell raffle chances and T-shirts, roam around as a security presence during the games, and assist with cleanup at the end of the day. The Tournament runs evenings on Thursdays and Fridays, and during the day on Saturdays and Sundays. The final day of the tournam
ent is January 31st. Raffle/Tshirts and Admissions people sit with each other, and Security or Cleanup are in pairs. Sign up with a friend for the same shift!
Our tournament page on VolunteerSpot lists all the spots that need to be filled for the whole tournament and includes full descriptions of what volunteers do for the different positions.
Note: VolunteerSpot does ask for your email address to send a reminder, but you do not need to create an account. VolunteerSpot does not share your email address with anyone.
If you have any questions about volunteering for the tournament, please email Janet Pikulik or call/text on 203 275-6502.

St. T's 29th Annual Tournament Update
|
And the winner is...The St. Jude Crusaders! After three days of great competition, the girls varsity team from St. Jude School took first place in their division. They played their championship game against our very own St. Theresa Tigers girls varsity team, the first time the two teams faced off during the event. The girls from St. Theresa's team took second place overall in the tournament and have a very nice team trophy to show for it.
Come and see our Varsity Boys play Thursday, 6:20 pm vs. All Saints and Saturday, 8 am vs. OLF.

Dear St. Theresa School parents,
Enrollment is underway for next year and St. Theresa School would like to invite you to become an ambassador for the 2016/2017 school year. This is a new program that will help formalize how St. Theresa School approaches, nurtures, and welcomes new families into our community.
To become an ambassador you need to have a child enrolled in the current school year and he or she should have attended St. Theresa for more than one consecutive school year.
The ambassadors will help St. Theresa School's new parents become more quickly acclimated to the community. I will assign ambassadors to specific families. As an ambassador you would be expected to:
- Reach out, introduce, and welcome new parents to the community
- Share any relevant information about the school's expectations, handbook rules, etc.
- Be accessible to answer questions and/or concerns (primarily by e-mail)
- Encourage new parents to participate in school events and activities (i.e. meet the new family at the Ice Cream Social and/or Walk-a-thon to make introductions to other St. Theresa families)
- Seek out new parents at St. Theresa events and help them to get involved in the community
If you are interested in becoming an ambassador (and I hope you are), please email HSA at hsa@stesonline.org. With your help, we are looking forward to fostering and growing this wonderful community at St. Theresa School.
