From Mrs. Rowley

Thank you to all who submitted photos for the "Snowman Challenge!" Yesterday we had all of the submissions displayed on the hallway monitor. It was so hard to pick a winner, so our judges decided to grant all of the submissions as winners! They have earned a dress-down day for Friday.

Catholic Schools Week is just around the corner! This is a week when we celebrate our mission as a Catholic School, and we will have several events that week. We will begin with an open house on Sunday, January 27 from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm, and on Wednesday, January 30 from 6:00-7:00 pm. Please spread the word about our wonderful school and invite family and friends to join us! Friday we will welcome families to come and join us for lunch. More information will follow.

Please stay warm and safe in this wintry weather!

From the Editor

Please make sure to read the Buzz every week. There's a lot of great things in it. Also, turn in your submissions! Submissions are due by Mondays by 5pm. I accept submissions from teachers, staff, and parents. If you know of something interesting going on in our community, or want to give a shout out to someone at the school, I'd love to add it to the Buzz. I especially love pictures. Please contact Mrs. Rowley to make sure that we have permission to publish pictures of every student in the picture. Pictures need to be less than 5 MB. Thanks so much!
