From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
Happy Mother’s Day to all of our special moms at St. Anthony on the Lake School! I hope you had a wonderful day!
Once again, I begin my note with some Thank Yous! Thanks to Ashley Packee and her team for organizing our beautiful Muffins with Moms on Friday. The PLC was bursting with love! Thanks to our dads for helping out with serving and cleanup!
We also thank EVERYONE who organized our Teacher Appreciation Week! Every day the teachers were recognized in some way! The meals were FABULOUS (I think we all gained 5 pounds!) The notes from students were beyond sweet. We all felt very appreciated and blessed throughout the week.
Here are some important events happening this week…
-
I will be traveling to Washington DC on Tuesday with the 8th graders and Ms. Kaschak. Please keep us in your prayers for a safe journey.
- Wednesday is Birthday Blessing for those who have birthdays in May and June. Fr. Tony will give a special blessing at Mass for all of you. You may dress up (no jeans or sweats please).
- Friday, May 13: No school. Snow Day make-up day.
- Saturday and Sunday, May 14 and 15 is First Communion. We all pray in a special way for our first communicants.
We are in need of hot lunch volunteers this week Tuesday and Thursday, if you have availability in your schedule, please sign up here.
Field Day Volunteers - Friday, May 27th. Calling all parents who would are able to assist with Field Day activities! If you would like to help make this event a success, sign up here.
Enjoy these last weeks of school. We only have 17 days left!
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel

This week’s spotlight shines brightly on a lady that wears many hats, Megan Hendrix!! This is not a comprehensive list, but a mere highlight of some of the ways she makes St. Anthony on the Lake so great. Megan is a room parent for grades 4K and 4th grade, she leads the Adventure girls (replaced Girl Scouts) of the 4th grade, she co-heads our Trunk or Treat, she bought all the food for our Easter Meal, and is always quick to help out with any last minute volunteer needs in the health room, lunch room or play ground. Megan is known for having a smile on her face and kindness in her heart that can be felt by all of those that she touches. We thank her for her constant generosity and feel so grateful to have her as a part of our community.
