Monday Minute
Happy Monday,

I t is hard to believe that we are a week away from Labor Day! We are testing our emergency phone system today. Please let me know if you did not receive a call.

All week at Morning Assembly we are reading different parables from the Gospel. Ask your student to fill you in.

Also don't forget we have a 1:00 dismissal on Friday. Aftercare will be available. Friday will also be an out of uniform day. All students are encouraged to bring a can good or nonperishable food item with them to donate to St. Vincent de Paul.

Have a great week.

Peace,

Ed Seib

Prayers for the Huffines
Please continue to keep the Huffine family in your prayers. You can check Brian's Caringbridge site for updates on how he is doing.

The Huffine family has asked for everyone to pray to Saint Mother Theodore Guerin.

Saint Mother Theodore Guerin,
valiant woman of God,
intercede for us in our needs.
Implore for us through Jesus, the Christ,
the gifts of a living faith,
abiding hope
and steadfast charity,
so that
through a life of prayer
and service with others
we may aid in promoting
the Providence of God
among all peoples.
Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, pray for us.
Amen.
Drop Off Reminder NEW
As a reminder, please do not drive southbound on Norwaldo when dropping off your student(s) in the morning. Those coming southbound stop the flow of traffic in both directions and slows down the process of drop off.
Hot Lunch Volunteer Sign Up
Thank you to all of the families who placed hot lunch orders for the first trimester. We had a record number of families order meals, meaning more benefits for our PTO (and our staff and families)! Please make sure to pay any open balances this weekend. 

Feel free to volunteer for a lunch or two. We just ask that you sign up for the class in which your child/ren are placed OR a PTO lunch (please don't sign up for a 4th grade lunch if you don't have a 4th grader, for example). If we have openings in class lunches, we will open up to any available volunteers and will then donate proceeds to the PTO. 
Any questions? Send an email to  ckshotlunch@gmail.com
Trash Bag Fundraiser NEW
It's time once again for our annual school fundraiser!

Playground Duty Sign Up Updated
We appreciate everyone who has signed up to monitor recess. We couldn't do it without you. The instructions given in the sign up genius that was sent out last May asked for parents of K-5 students to sign up for 2 recess duties and wait to sign up for more until after Labor Day. If you accidentally signed up for more than two duties, please choose two and remove your name from the other spots. Starting Tuesday, September 4th, everyone can sign up for additional spots.
