As many of you have probably heard through the national (social) media, many students nation-wide are planning to "walk-out" of school on
Wednesday, March 14, at approximately
10 a.m., which was the approximate time of the shooting in Parkland, FL in February. In-lieu of a walk-out, the Loyola student body has requested 17 minutes of prayer, to remember those killed and injured in the Florida shooting.
Since
10 a.m. falls during our usual Elementary Mass time, we have decided to reschedule the
March 21 All-School Mass to this
Wednesday, March 14. We will begin with Mass at
9:50, and then secondary students will remain for the 17 minutes of prayer after Mass. K-6 teachers, students, and families may choose to quietly move back to classrooms after Mass or stay for the 17 minutes of prayer.
Some of you may have received notice that the
March 14 Elementary Mass would include a Birthday celebration. However, the Elementary Birthday Mass has been rescheduled for
March 21. Please share this information with friends and family to increase awareness of the schedule change.
Please contact me or Principal Adam Bemmels, with any further questions you may have. Thank you for your continued prayers and cooperation as we show our support for the families in Florida in a way unique to Loyola.

SCRIP UPDATE
Due to increased difficulty in picking up local orders for the volunteer committee, we will no longer be offering Culver's, Taco John's, Pub 500 or Liv Aveda after
March 19. All orders for these cards placed on
March 18 will be honored. We will be keeping McDonald's S
crip for now. We will continue to offer Casey's General Store
Scrip, but only in the $25 amount. The $50 cards will no longer be available after
March 19.
Please note that Liv Aveda does accept the Spafinder Wellness 365 card which is available to order the
Shop with Scrip website. We are sorry for any inconvenience this change may cause. It has just become more and more difficult to arrange pick-ups for these local orders. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the
Scrip volunteers.
