A Thank You Note from the Rescue Mission School
Dear St. Alphonsus School,
The children were so excited to receive gifts from you on Valentines Day. They kept saying "I can't decide which book, there are so many good ones!"
In a day with so much division, you were beacons of peace! Thank you!
Cross Trainers Academy
These were the books we collected during Catholic Schools Week.

Fish Fry News
It was another great week for Fish Fry with over 400 dinners served! Thanks to all of our volunteers and to our 5th Grade class for hosting. This week is 4th Grade’s turn to host. If you are able to help, please sign up online using the Fish Fry link on the Parish or School website www.st-alphonsus.org/school. Also, it’s hard to believe, but we are already more than halfway through Lent and our Fish Fry season. We still need to train additional Coordinator/Supervisory volunteers for 2018, in particular: Kitchen, Kitchen Set Up, Kitchen Closing, Gym Set Up and Fryers. Please consider training for one of these vital positions using the attached form. Thank You!
Spring Art Sale
By now, your child should have brought home a green plastic bag with his or her artwork, an order catalog, and instructions on how to order artwork products from the Home and School Spring Art Sale. If you have not yet received artwork from your child, and you are interested in the sale, PLEASE check with your child and/or check your child’s backpack. Last year we had a number of circumstances where artwork was “forgotten” in a backpack, resulting in late orders. As a reminder, there is a HARD DEADLINE of
APRIL 3RD for this year’s sale…after that date, projects will be shipped out and ordering will no longer be possible. We appreciate your cooperation with the ordering deadline!
You may pay for multiple orders with one check. Please make sure, however, that you list each child’s name in the “memo” section of the check so that order forms can be marked as paid. If you choose not to participate in the sale, you are welcome to keep your child’s artwork at home. There is no need to return anything to school. If you ARE ordering, PLEASE make sure the artwork is returned with the order form and payment. Unlike prior sales, scanning will be done by Original Works this year. The company needs the original artwork to appropriately process an order.
Thank you for supporting our school!
