Nurse Notes - Flu Shots
I
t's that time of the year again - Flu Season! Parents, we encourage you to get your children vaccinated against the flu.
A special reminder to the Pre- School Parents: your child must receive the flu vaccination before December 31st.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Folchick, RN
Thank you for the wonderful donations to the Thanksgiving Food Drive!
Your wonderful donations filled a trailer and a van! The money sent for the Stop and Shop cards will be blessings to these families in the form of the perishable items such as turkeys and fresh veggies. May God bless you and your family this Thanksgiving!
Many hands make light hearts. Generous hearts make the world happier and holier!
Tigers In Action - New Service Club Reaches Out
Saint Theresa School has a new service club , TIGERS in ACTION! On Monday evening, several of our eighth grade charter members joined forces with Urban Impact in Bridgeport to serve an amazing Thanksgiving dinner to the families of inner city students. We also helped unload and pack 50 brimming Thanksgiving food boxes for each of the families represented. This is the first of many serving opportunities the TIA students have planned. Beginning in January, 6th and 7th grade students will be invited to join TIGERS in ACTION as we reach out to the community around us and follow God's command to LOVE GOD and LOVE OTHERS.
We look forward to the 6th and 7th grades joining in January!
St. Theresa Annual Fund Campaign Launched
The Annual Fund Campaign has official launched with letters having been sent out to our alumni, parents and the community. We are challenging our parents to support the fund with a minimum donation of $25. Please keep in mind that this tax deductible donation combined with all the other generous donations help bridge the gap between how much is collected as tuition and what it actually costs to run the school. I ask that you prayerfully consider what your family can afford to donate to the Annual Fund. Thank you.
Coming Soon from the HSA - Spirit Wear! Keep your eyes open!
St. Theresa's 30th Annual Basketball Tournament

Please email basketball@stesonline.org with your contact information if you are interested in volunteering and/or being a committee member.
Thank you.
