1. A special word of gratitude to the families who supported last Friday's
Donation-Dress-Down-Day for St. Rose Elementary School in Santa Rosa,
California. We will be sending a check for $1,100 thanks to your generous
and caring hearts!
2. Grades 5 & 4 may order nuggets/fries ($2.75) tomorrow for their lunches
on Thursday.
3. Since Thursday is the feast of St. Nicholas, the students may dress down
and they will receive an ice cream treat at lunchtime!
4. There will be no Science Explorers meeting this Thursday.
5. After the mention of the Class of 2019's Scholarship total in the December
letter (yesterday) at $217,000, I was informed about recent scholarships
and some not so recent (shy scholars) that bumped that total
considerably to $581,500+! I will let you know the names & numbers
soon! We are so very proud of this class for many reasons and appreciate
the care & support of their families and the teachers who guide them
through the years!
6. Grade 5 students are invited to bring in lunches for the homeless at St. Francis Inn
tomorrow.
