Dear Parents,

We have a lot of upcoming events in these next two months. This year has flown by so quickly despite its challenges. We are looking forward to our end of the year celebrations including field trips, Spring concert, pizza sale and promotions!

It’s a great time to stock up on your pizza supply for the summer! Our fall sale was a great success and we are hoping you will support this spring sale to meet or exceed our goals. Check out the incentives and help us get those pizza orders. If everyone does a little, we accomplish a lot! Thank you in advance for your commitment and support.

If you have not registered your child(ren) for the upcoming school year, please do so as soon as possible. We are in the process of reviewing a new social studies series aligned with standards based grading and are looking forward to getting new materials and resources. Budgeting, ordering and planning ahead will help us best serve the students for the upcoming school year. Registration information is available on our website for your convenience. 

We are almost ready for Easter! The students have been participating in the Stations of the Cross on Friday’s at 2:30pm, praying a decade of the Rosary daily, collecting items for the homeless shelter and will receive Reconciliation after Mass on Tuesday, April 12. 

Keep the faith in a challenging world!

Joan Schlaefer

Book Hunting:
Easter is fast approaching! As you are hunting for Easter Eggs this Spring, keep your eyes out for St. Matthew library books that your child is done reading. Over the last several years, we have accumulated 253 library cards from books that have not been returned. We have never issued fines, but would love to have the books returned for all students to enjoy. So if you happen to see a book with the St. Matthew School stamp on it, please send it back to its library home. Thank you!
Volunteer Opportunity:
We are looking for another volunteer to help in the St. Matthew Library! No experience is needed and I am happy to train anyone that is interested. Tasks may include carding and shelving books, labeling new books, and reading to the students. I will continue to volunteer next year, but I would really enjoy sharing the joy with another parent. The schedule is very flexible and it’s really a lot of fun, so please consider sharing your time and talents! Contact the school office if you are interested or have questions.
Lent is a time to reflect on how we are with God, with our neighbor, and with ourselves. The 6th – 8th grades Community Service Volunteer Ministry (CSVM) is seeking your help in collecting items for the next several weeks to benefit the newly built St. Katharine Drexel Shelter in Fond du Lac. The new shelter is named for St. Katharine Drexel, an heiress to a banking fortune and advocate for the poor. She walked away from her inheritance and choose instead to work for justice among the poor and oppressed.  


Thank you to everyone who has already donated.
