Balance Due on Family Book Bills - Nov 30.

If you have not paid your Family Book Bill balance in full, please pay your 2nd half on or before Nov 30.

The payments were divided equally this year so if you only paid 1/2 in July, you should be able to check your records to determine the amount due Nov 30.

If you are unsure of your balance due, please email the bookkeeper, Mick, at Zakrajsekm@olmc1.org 

Moe's Last Day

Monday, November 28th will be last day for Moe's. Credits will be given to those families that have purchased Moe's via Campus Cuisine through the end of the semester. We will be vetting other vendors to replace Moe's in the coming weeks. Thank you for your patience as we work to finalize a new vendor.

Energy Kit Challenge

OLMC's 3rd and 4th graders welcomed the Ecoguardians last week! Because of this visit, Families and staff can submit a request for a free Energy Kit and support our school up through December 31, 2022 . This has the potential to help OLMC  qualify for grand prize rewards of up to $2,500! For every 20 kits requested, OLMC will receive $50.....

So far: Our Lady of Mount Carmel School has reached

28 Energy Kits and has saved 2000 kWh of energy.

We still have a little over 1 month to earn up to $2500 in rewards!

• TIP: Did you know that even if families have gotten kits before or aren’t Duke Energy customers they can still sign up to help your school? While only eligible Duke Energy customers will receive an Energy Kit in the mail, every family can sign up online with code 75889 to help OLMC be in the running for grand prize rewards.

School Lost and Found:

Anything remaining today will be donated to the Merciful H.E.L.P. Center. We do check for names before we donate.

The school lost & found table is located in the Parish Hall/Cafeteria. Items like jewelry & electronics are kept in the office. Parents are welcome to come check lost & found during the day. 

There is also a gym lost and found in the area outside the gym doors for items

left in the gym or locker rooms.
