Prayer for the month of November
November is dedicated to the holy souls in purgatory.
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
Our Lady of Mercy and St. Joseph pray for us.

News for CCHS Parents
CCHS Christmas Project: It is once again time for our annual CCHS Christmas Project. For those of you new to CCHS, this is something the CCHS community has been part of for more than 30 years. Every Christmas, Charlotte Catholic supports Catholic Charities in their efforts to provide Christmas gifts to children who otherwise would have no presents for Christmas.
-
Each homeroom has been assigned a child from Catholic Social Services to “adopt” for this project. Please ask your student or contact your student’s homeroom teacher for more information regarding this project and the child assigned to his/her homeroom. You may donate directly to this project through the school store using the link below.
-
IMPORTANT: We cannot accept checks only online donations, cash, and Visa gift cards. If you purchase a gift for the family, you may send it with your child to give to their homeroom teacher.
-
Deadline is Thursday, December 9.

Attendance
24-hour Attendance Hotline 704-716-2418
* Please follow these procedures *
Early Dismissal: If your student needs early dismissal, please have them bring a note to the attendance office first thing in the morning with their name and exact time of dismissal. This will allow your student to leave school without a parent entering the building to sign them out.
Return to school after an absence: A parent note is needed for documentation after any student absence.
Reminder from the Attendance Office regarding disruptions to the school day:
In addition to a high number of students arriving late to school, there has been an excessive amount of last minute requests for dismissals for appointments during the school day. We understand that sometimes appointments during the school day may be unavoidable, however we ask that, as much as possible, families plan ahead and physical notes are brought to the attendance office in the morning before homeroom, and that dismissals are planned so that the times are at class change. It is very disruptive to have so many students coming and going during class time.
