JANUARY LATE START
KINDERGARTEN VISITS NATIVITY
Mrs. Bacewic's class visits the nativity in the Saint Pius X Parish Life Center.
7TH GRADE SERVICE PROJECT
The seventh grade stewardship focus is respect life. Our stewardship team organized creative projects in order to help the students learn about stewardship and how we embrace it as a way of life and how we can share our time/talent/treasure in recognizing the dignity of life.

The students focused on Center of Hospice Care and made tie blankets for hospice patients as well as grieving loved ones.
FACEBOOK MARKETPLACE:

BABY BLESSINGS

Mrs. Connors in 5th grade and Mr. Parrish in 2nd grade both received the best early Christmas blessings! Meet Timothy James Connors and Isla Maeve Parrish. Welcome to the Saint Pius X family!
PLEASE LABEL ITEMS

Freezing mornings and warmer afternoons mean that many sweatshirts and fleeces end up in lost & found. Make sure your student's clothes are labeled so they find their way home.
WATER BOTTLES
Make sure your student brings a water bottle to school each day
THANK YOU SAINT PIUS X COMMUNITY
As always, we are humbled by your generosity! We greatly appreciate all of your gifts and thoughtful notes during the Christmas season. Thank you!!
PARENT TUITION INFORMATION MEETING
With the changes in the tuition policy and tuition assistance program for the 2022-2023 school year, we offered a parent information session to explain the details.
DON'T FORGET YOUR MASK
THE MASS
“The Mass”: A Video Series from Word on Fire
Wednesdays from 6:30 – 8:00 pm, January 19 - February 23
in the Multi-Purpose Room (enter through door 6, across from the playground)
 
For Catholics, the Mass is probably the most familiar part of our faith. Sometimes, though, that familiarity can keep us from going deeper or can lead us to take the Mass for granted. Join us as we walk through the Mass with Bishop Barron this winter in a beautiful six-part video and discussion series. Come and see that there is more to the Mass than you ever realized! No advance registration or book purchase is required.
