SAVE THE DATE!

On Sunday, August, 7 we are planning our Back to School Bash that includes attending the Lexington Legends Game at 2:00. It will be Mary Queen day! Our school choir will be singing the National Anthem and we will even have a person from Mary Queen throw out the first pitch! Can you think of a more exciting way to start the school year with our Mary Queen Family? More details will be forthcoming but please hold this date on your calendar. he articles short and concise as people tend not to read much more than a couple of paragraphs. Place article copy here.

This is a way that you can still support Mary Queen School from home with no extra cost from you. If you already shop at Krogers, please designate your Kroger card to Mary Queen. Snap your receipts from anyplace that sells food for Box Tops - every little bit helps!
