Spring Everything Under the Sun Sale
Thank you to everyone who donated or helped out for the Spring Everything Under the Sun Sale.  A special thank you to Al Crawford for sending a truck and a driver for the pick up on Saturday.  Also, a huge thank you to the Kaemmerer family and the Althoff Volunteers: John Lewis, Dillon Birdsong, Jacob Roche, Tyler Stone, and Justin Kaemmerer, who helped with the biggest job of all which is the clean up. 
The sale was a huge success because of the help and donations we received.  We raised $3,064.10.   The school also was able to use some of the donations sent in for supplies for the school.  Thank you all so much again for your help and support!

Thank you so much to everyone who donated phone books to be recycled. St Teresa School was able to recycle over 910# of phone books in just 2 days!!
