From the Desk of Ms. Morri
The
Catholic Schools Raffle was s
tarted in 2009 by sponsor Catholic United Financial, the Catholic Schools Raffle is an annual fundraising supporting Catholic schools in Minnesota and the Dakotas. In 2017, more than 80 schools will be participating. Since Catholic United underwrites ALL expenses for the Raffle, schools get to key every penny of each $5 raffle ticket sold. Approximately $40,000 in prizes are given away in the Raffle, including the grand prize: a brand new SUV or $20,000 cash!
Beginning on January 13th, St. Stephen's will be selling raffle tickets. Each student will be given a book of 10 tickets to sell, these will be in the youngest child's backpack tomorrow, Friday, January 13. While this fundraiser is not required, we appreciate the help and support in raising money for our school. If you sell all 10 of your tickets and would like to sell more, please return them and the money to school and simply ask for more tickets. Last year, we were able to raise over $27,000 and this year our goal is $40,000! The top selling student at St. Stephen's will receive a Kindle Fire HD and the top selling classroom will receive a pizza party. It is important that all raffle tickets are accounted for. If you do not plan on selling your raffle tickets, they must be returned to school.
Thank you!

Winter Wonderland for 2nd Grade
|
Winter has, at last, truly arrived! Second grade was delighted by all of the snow they got to play in at recess! To keep in the spirit of winter fun, second grade completed a writing project in which they had to decide if they would rather stay inside and watch movies while drinking hot chocolate during a snowfall or if they would go outside and play and why they would choose that. I saw quite the variety of answers and lots of artistic ability during this fun mini-project. We hope you're enjoying the snow as much as we are!
