Cole County Health Department is pleased to announce that it will again offer a flu vaccine clinic at school. The date is still to be determined, but will be held during the school day during October.
Flu-mist (nasal) has not been approved for this flu season by the Food & Drug administration (FDA), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), or the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice (ACIP).
Given this information, only the flu shot will be available.
Forms are coming home Friday and MUST be returned by September 21st. No forms can be turned in after the 21st.
If you are not going to take part in the clinic, please return the form to school. Thanks.
Any questions please call the health department at 573.636.2181 or school 573.636.8922.

Scrip/Fundraising Information
|
|
Head's Up Salon is no longer participating in Scrip. If you have an old order form at home, please mark it off. The new order form will be on the school's web site.
The Fall Gift Fundraiser continues through next Friday, September 16. All orders should be turned in no later than Monday, September 19. Pick up of this order will be on Thursday, October 20 from 3-5:30 p.m. in the school cafeteria.
If you are not in the habit of participating in scrip, please consider doing so. If you do not need or want the funds that you raise, they can be donated to another person, the school or the church. The 50% of the profit that the school makes from Scrip sales makes a difference in the school budget. The participating vendors are places where we all spend money every week. Why not use Scrip and make some of that money back for you and or the school?
For those 6th, 7th and 8th graders who wish to earn service hours, helping out with delivery of Fundraising orders counts. Pick up is always from 3-5:30 p.m. in the school cafeteria. It involves helping me locate their order (they are in alphabetical order), and you might be asked to carry a box to someone's car. You will earn 2 ½ hours of service. There will be a little down time throughout when you can work on homework. Please let me know if you are interested. The first one is on Thursday, October 20.
Please email Karen if you have any question at kbalcer@stpeterjc.org.

WAR against HUNGER is coming!

If you can't feed 100, can you feed 1?
~Mother Teresa
We are waging a war against hunger!
Area schools will again compete against each other to see who can collect the most food for the Samaritan Center.
More details will come in next weeks newsletter.
The contest is September 19th- October 3rd.
We are defending our title, we have
won the past two years.

Free and Reduced Lunch and Lunch Money
|
|
Please send all lunch meal money to the school office in an envelope with the child's name on it.
Children who are purchasing a milk for 0.30 cents can bring that money to the cafeteria and give it to the lunch ladies at lunch time.
If you are on free or reduced lunch, your child has to pay for the milk if they are not buying lunch that day. The milk is only free if they take the lunch for the day.
Please call the school office at 636.8922 if you have any questions.

Is anyone interested in leading St. Peter Interparish School as a Life Runners chapter? It would require organizing a morning walk before school on the first Wednesday of each month, praying the Life Runners Creed, and carrying the banner with the students. Everyone would wear the Life Runners jerseys on the morning walk. Please contact Mark Veit at mveit@stpeterjc.org if you are interested or would like more information.
