Dear St. Anne Catholic School Families:

Just one more week until spring break! As usual, the last few weeks have been busy on campus. Our spring sports are off to a great start! The St. Anne Talent Show was a wonderful display of the variety of talents our students possess. Our Pre-K parade, led by Father Tommy was a huge hit. We celebrated Go Texan Day with many STREAM activities. We entered into the season of Lent. It’s beautiful to see our students doing Stations of the Cross in our courtyard on Fridays.

Looking ahead to next week we have middle schoolers attending field trips. Please keep our 7^th graders in your prayers next week as they go on retreat and our 8^th graders, as they travel to Washington, D.C.

As our Lenten journey continues, let us remember that Lent brings the death and resurrection of the Lord more adamantly into our lives. Let us continue to observe Lent together in prayer, penance and almsgiving.

Wishing all a blessed weekend.

Only by His Grace,

Kendall Shamas

Principal

The 2023 Gala Committee is excited to kick off raffle ticket sales! We have some exciting prizes and incentives this year that we think everyone will want a chance to win.

We are asking each family to sell one book of raffle tickets (10 tickets). Raffle tickets are $10 each. Family, friends and neighbors are welcome to participate in the raffle. Attendance at the Gala is not required to participate.

Please return raffle ticket stubs to the front office in the ziploc bag they were received in so we can keep track of how many tickets each family has sold and award incentives accordingly. If you choose not to sell raffle tickets, please return them to the front office. If you would like more raffle tickets, please email Mrs. Minch.

Welcome, Flynn O'Hara as our new uniform provider!

Our school shop is now open!
