From the Desk of Mr. Marty Van Hulle, Principal
SAL Parents:
With Fall in full swing and with several weeks of school under our belts, a variety of activities have taken place and are upcoming in the next few weeks.
Our “K’ers” had a great trip to the pumpkin farm in early October and students in grades 3K through 4 hosted the Lake Country Fire and Rescue Department for lessons on fire prevention. Our youngest students were thrilled to be able to see all of the fire equipment up close and were enthusiastic in their questioning of the firemen. This past week we had a beautiful day for Pet Blessing and a variety of pets were in attendance including the “typical” cats and dogs and the “somewhat atypical” groundhog, snake, and chicken receiving blessings.
Our busy schedule continues this week with Parent/Student/Teacher conferences on Tuesday evening and next week we kick off our Book Fair (18th – 21st) and host KISS Day on Friday, October 21. Our Catholic Schools Walk is scheduled for Saturday, November 5 and Mostaccioli Madness will take place on November 12. Each of these events provides an opportunity for plenty of parental involvement and all are invited to participate.
Thank you to all who have engaged in our activities thus far and we look forward to continuing to welcome our school community to all of the fun and engaging events at SAL!
Take care,
M. Van Hulle
Principal, SAL

Volun-CHEER!
Julie Goyette & Jamie Fraundorf
Volunteer: A person who freely offers to take part in an enterprise or undertake a task. These two awesome ladies are the epitome of this definition. They are always the first to offer up their time and talent to better our community. The Cancer Awareness Mass they put on last month was thoughtful, beautiful, and inspiring- all because of the vision and effort these women put forth. We are so blessed to have these two ladies and their families in our SAL community.
Thank you!!
St. Vincent De Paul, pray for us
St. Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us
St. Anthony of Padua, pray for us
If you have anyone whom you would like to nominate for this recognition, please contact Ashley Packee at ashley.packee@gmail.com

Marriage Enrichment Committee
"I do". Those two simple words representing their choice to love each other and be there for each other all the days of their lives. Although only two people said those words on the wedding day, there is a community at SAL here to support couples all the days of their lives. SAL's Marriage Enrichment Committee focuses on giving support and encouragement to married couples through faith based and fun experiences. Past events include trivia and game nights, wine and cheese socials, and guest speaking experiences. The committee meets every other month to discuss and plan out the two to three events each year. If you feel called to help plan activities and events that will allow couples to reconnect, build, and grow their faith and marriage together please consider joining the committee. All are welcome. We hope you say "I do" to being part of the Marriage Enrichment Committee.
The Marriage Enrichment Committee will be meeting at 6:30 on November 9. Anyone interested should contact Maribeth Blankenheim at heimers5@mail.com.
