Dear All Saints Families,
We want to thank our community for its support of first Hurricane Harvey and then Hurricane Irma victims. We were able to raise approximately $3000 with our dress down day for Texas and then we gathered three large truckloads of items for The Keys. Thank you for your amazingly generous donations. We know there are so many other areas still struggling due to natural disasters. I have been asked by several families who are connected to Puerto Rico for assistance. Hurricane Maria devastated this American territory. I am often reminded by others that our existence/problems during the storm are many nation's dreams of every day existence. We are so blessed with what we have. As we are called to serve those in need, All Saints will have a dress down day and donut morning sale this Friday for Catholic Relief Charities in Puerto Rico. Students will be able to wear jeans, running shoes, and any red t-shirt (red is the color for Puerto Rico) for $5. Further, donuts will be sold in the lobby Friday morning. We are well aware we have asked for many donations for this year, but we wish to let parents know this is purely optional. Thank you for your support in advance.
We had a beautiful Liturgy this past Thursday inducting our newest members into the All Saints Catholic School chapter of the National Junior Honor Society. Congratulations to all our members! With this membership comes a responsibility of the society's six pillars of expectations - Catholic identity, leadership, scholarship, service, character, and citizenship. Not only are these pillars met for induction, but they must be maintained throughout the membership. We expect great things from our students and know we will not be disappointed.
Our Auction Committee had its initial organizational meet this past Thursday. What a wonderful turnout! Thank you to all in attendance and to those that were unable to attend but reached out to help. Not only is the Auction our Home School Association's major fundraiser to help support the school's operating expenses, it is a community that brings our families together for a wonderful night of friends and faith. Please save the date - Saturday, November 4th beginning at 6:00 PM at the Jupiter Beach Resort. Our committee would like to invite all families to this event and let everyone know that, unlike other years, there will be some profit made on every ticket sold. Therefore, simply by buying a ticket you are supporting the school.
Our fall sports are underway. Come to one of our girls' volleyball or boys' flag football games and enjoy the spirit. I am always so proud of our athletes and the skill and sportsmanship taught to our students by our coaches. All games and athletics are shared on this site.
Have a great week and God bless,
