Parking Lot News
Please review the parking lot diagram and drop off explanation attached to the newsletter. Three areas of concern:
1. PARENTS and students should always use the crosswalk to go to and from the school buildings.
2. The FIRST ROW of parking spaces should never be used to park.
3. NEVER pull through the cross walk or use the spaces even with and beyond to park as shown in the diagram.

It is that time of year when families begin planning for their time off during the holidays. With that in mind, the Helias Catholic High School dance team known as Helias Dance Explosion (HDX) has traditionally offered a one day clinic during the Christmas break for all girls in grades 2-8. It will be held December 28 in the Helias Catholic gymnasium from 8am-1pm. It is a fun filled day of dancing with team members, games, learning a routine to be performed for their parents and the opportunity to perform at a basketball game at Helias. If you have any questions, please contact me at 573-619-9879 [1] cell or

Playground Renovations and Updates:
SPIRIT WEAR FUNDRAISER
|
We are kicking off a SPIRIT WEAR fundraiser to continue raising money for improvements and renovations of our Preschool and Elementary playgrounds. We would like to be able to remove the mulch from our playgrounds and replace it with rubber padding as well as relocate the preschool playground. Renovations such as this will be very costly, so you will see different opportunities to contribute to this fundraiser throughout the year.
This is a ONE TIME only order and all orders MUST be received by December 1,2016
.
Spirit Wear from these orders can be worn on Spirit Days only. Please see the attached order form for this Spirit Wear order. Samples will be available in the school office for sizing if needed.
All orders will be returned in time to be given as Christmas gifts. If you would like to pick your order up in the school office rather than having it sent home with your child, please be sure to note this on the order form.
If you have questions about the playground renovations, or are interested in helping with future fundraising for these renovations, please contact Lacy Ralston@ 573-636-8922 ext. 329.
