Thanks to everyone who came out this morning to cheer on our Boosterthon runners! The event was a breath taking, fundraising success! Thanks to the generosity of our numerous pledge makers, we have collected a total of $15K, which is 72% of the 21K that has been pledged! This will not only allow us to purchase additional chrome books for classroom use, but in addition, ten percent of your child(ren)'s pledges will be reduced from your Family Fundraising invoice!
Your generosity never disappoints!
Thank you!
MAP Growth Family Reports were sent home today with Trimester 2

overall effort and testing results!
WELL DONE!
It was wonderful to receive so many pictures of our students attending their various parishes to kick off CSW 2020! All students who attended Mass in uniform on Sunday 1/26 will be dressing in Spirit Wear on Tuesday, February 4th (with the exception of our 7th & 8th graders, who will be selecting another day due to Science Fair!). Thank you for encouraging your child(ren) to wear their uniform to Mass to promote Catholic Ed and to raise awareness in various church communities.
