Dear Parents,
The Parish Festival is Sunday! Thank you in advance for signing up your kiddos to sing. If you did not get a chance to sign them up and are planning on coming, you can have your child join us in the choir. The Praise Choir (4:00pm choir) will be joining us so some to Mass! The festival will begin after Mass with food, games, beverages and lots of family fun! (Grandpa Thull is making pulled pork).
The Girl's Volleyball Team did a great job this past week. Congratulations to the girls and Coaches Erickson and Reyes! Basketball season is right around the corner. We are looking for a Boys A Team Coach, Boys, B Team Coach and a Girl's B Team Coach. If you are interested, please email the school office or email the new Athletic Directors, Tim and Jen Schwartz at jenschwartz@stmattsschoolcampbellsport.com.
We are very excited to be having "Trunk or Treat" again this year. All school and daycare families are invited to join us for a safe and fun way to trick-or-treat. We had a great time last year and you will not be disappointed. Please get your family dressed up in their favorite Halloween costumes, fill your trunk with candy and come have a great time!
A huge thank you to you! You are doing a great job keeping your kids home if they are sick or having any flu like symptoms. Staying in session for the entire school year is our goal so thank you for doing your part in helping us all stay healthy and safe.
We will be rescheduling Parent Teacher Conferences, scheduled October 6. I apologize for the inconvenience. We have double-booked and crossed with the Religious Ed program since they are meeting here on Wednesday nights this year. Please watch for the new date coming soon.
The Archdiocese of Milwaukee Office of Schools, has created a document for Catholic Schools, addressing contemporary challenges facing Catholic Education. This new guide provides direction and guidance rooted in the Gospel, to address cultural challenges, racism, civic participation for the common good, and economic challenges. It is beautifully written and will be available in the next few weeks. It is a great read, confirming our obligation to love thy neighbor. I am looking forward to sharing this document with you as it is worth your while. It will be released in the next few weeks so please watch for it.
See you at the Fall Festival! Many blessing to you!
Joan Schlaefer
