From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
The next couple of weeks are going to be busy! We have our next
Culver's Night tomorrow and teachers are serving the food! And, b
elieve it or not, the second quarter ends Thursday! The first half of the year has gone very quickly!
Remember that Friday is an early release day (11:30am) for students. So far, we have only had 6 families request EDC for Friday. Please remember to pack your child a lunch, beverage, and snack.
Catholic Schools Week begins this Saturday with our annual Mostaccioli Madness: a delicious dinner served by our 8th grade students (with a little help from their parents!). This is a major fundraiser for their May Washington DC trip.
Please join us!
A rundown of the other events for Catholic Schools Week can be found below. Please pay careful attention to the special "Dress for the Day"!
We all look forward to a great 3rd quarter!
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel

Special thanks to those families speaking at each of the Masses on January 26th and 27th!
Below, you will find the dress code of the day! This is always a great week to celebrate who we are as Catholic Schools in a creative, fun (and academic) way!
