Read the labels at each
purchase! Manufacturing processes change!
 Avoid items with allergy and ingredient alerts such as: "May Contain Peanut or Tree Nuts" "Processed on shared equipment with Peanuts or Tree Nuts" "Manufactured in a plant with Peanut or Tree Nuts" "Contains Peanut or Tree Nut Ingredients" Your diligence is keeping an allergic child safe at school.

From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
Christmas Vacation is almost upon us and the excitement is in the air!! The students have been hard at work preparing for tomorrow night's annual Christmas Concert. Students should plan on arriving by 6:10pm. They may go directly to their seats.
Our 3K and 4K will meet their teachers in the fireplace room.
They may be seated with parents, after they have performed, for the remainder of the concert. Please see Concert details below.
We have had a rash of tardy students lately. I know it is sometimes difficult to get up on these cold winter mornings BUT... the bell rings at 7:30...The TARDY bell is 7:35.
All students should be in their classrooms ready to go by 7:35. Please help me, your child, and your child's teacher to start the day off calmly and positively by being on time for school each and every day.
From all of us here at St. Anthony on the Lake: We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel

Save the Date: KISS, March 15th
We have moved Grandparent's Day to March 15th and have renamed it KISS (Kids Invite Someone Special). We have found that more and more students do not have grandparents in the area and we encourage everyone to bring a special someone (of course grandparents are encouraged to BE that someone special). We will begin with 10am Mass. Lunch and a classroom craft will follow. Details will be sent home closer to the date.
Classroom Coffee, Dec. 20th and 21st
The next two Classroom Coffees will be with
Mrs. Anderson

you have a specific question,
s
ubmit it with your RSVP so they can prepare.
All are welcome
