Dear Parents, Students, Grandparents, and Staff,
Greetings! Teachers are having conferences on Thursday with their students. They are going over the NWEA Fall results. We will be mailing home a copy of your child's results along with the school's overall results. You should receive these results by the weekend.
This Saturday, September 15 our 8th graders are headed off to Bishop Dwenger for their Confirmation Youth Rally. This is a wonderful day for them to become filled with the Holy Spirit as they are preparing for their Confirmation this year! Please pray for our 8th graders on this special day!
Well, we have had our first weather-related delay! We did have quite a few children show up at the regular time. Please remember that we call our own delays and cancellations. Also, we have our own texting service called Flocknotes. In today's Wednesday envelope, I have included the directions on how to sign up for this service on your cell phone. Please take the time to put Flocknotes on your cell phone.
Also, if you are reading this, you receive the Wednesday envelope electronically. We can check to see how many people are opening up the Wednesday envelope, and we only had 60% of our families reading the information. Now, while that percentage is better than most weeks, my goal is 100%!!! We are putting in the paper envelope a note reaching out to everyone confirming that they are receiving the electronic Wednesday envelope. Please email Mrs. Tourney at stourney@seascsfw.org if you signed up for the newsletter to come electronically and have not received it.
Have a great week,
Miss Widner
Principal

Scrip Update
by Jen Rolfsen & Amanda Brzozowski
|
Hello Pioneer Families!
We want to welcome all our new families, and are so happy to see our wonderful veteran SCRIP families back at school. Please remember to pop into our Friday store from 7am until Noon to grab anything you might need for your weekend plans. If you are new to SCRIP and have questions, that is a great time to stop in and ask, and begin to save tuition dollars for next year! SCRIP is so easy to use, and we had many families that had substantial tuition savings from simply purchasing SCRIP! Wouldn't it be awesome to see a credit of $500 on your tuition invoice next Summer? Stop in and ask me how to get that credit!
I know we have lots of birthday treats for our students to share with their classmates. We carry SCRIP for many fun places such as Cookie Cottage and Courtney's Bakery! If it's not a sweet treat you want, we can help you figure out what you can do to get SCRIP for those purchases. It ALL ADDS UP to tuition savings.
Thanks-SCRIPPING Day is Monday, September 17
th!! Go on the
www.shopwithscrip website to earn those extra percentages!! It's amazing how much it all adds up at the end of the year! Use your Presto Pay account to upload SCRIP directly to your phone. If you have questions about how this works, please stop by the SCRIP store on Friday, September 15 from 7am until noon to ask. You DO NOT want to miss out on these deals!
Keep your eyes peeled for an upcoming contest in the next few weeks.
Have a great week, and keep doing a great job using SCRIP!
