OCTOBER is SOCKTOBER
Socktober is a time where we collect new socks for the homeless, our soldiers, and others in need. New socks are a luxury that many of us take for granted. Socks keep our feet warm, dry, and clean during the winter months.

During the month of October, please bring in New socks of all sizes, and types so we can share them with those in need. A collection box will be outside of the main office. Thank you.

Principal's Message
Greetings:

The weather has been so beautiful this week! I hope you had an opportunity to go for a walk and see the beautiful fall colors. Students and teachers have spent time outside this week enjoying the sunshine.

Today, we were outside for a Fire Drill. It is amazing how well our student body and faculty were able to leave the building and line-up in the parking lot all while socially distanced and masked. They are all super heroes!

On Sunday, 10/11, at 12:30 pm there will be a Renew My Church meeting in St. Patricia Church. This is an important meeting as we will be discussing possible scenarios for our grouping that includes Sacred Heart, Our Lady of the Ridge, St. Linus, and St. Patricia. This is the time to make your voice heard. To attend you must register at wwwsignupgenius.com

No School tomorrow 10/9 due to faculty professional development, and on Monday in honor of Columbus Day. There has also been a change and there will be no school on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. Please mark your calendars.

Enjoy a great weekend!

Blessings,
Mrs. Nowinski
