March-April, 2008
Parents and Friends:Many thanks from all the teachers for your continued help and cooperation in the education of your children. As a Blue Ribbon School, we have nowhere to go but “up!” Keep reminding your kids that WE are a team - parents, teachers, and kids.
Spring is coming. How do we know? Our C+M SMILES Auction will be held on Saturday, 19 April! Once again, for only $30. per person, you can enjoy a beautifully catered sit-down dinner, an open bar, terrific Silent Auction items, and even more stupendous LIVE AUCTION items - AND, a raffle for a Caribbean Cruise! Please join us - only 220 tickets will be sold. Call 221-9409 for tickets.* * *
Other reminders to parents:
- Lent Stations of the Cross for our students are Wednesdays during Lent at 2:10 PM. Join us if you can.
- Congratulations (can you say “Blue Ribbon?”) to all students on a great Science Fair and Curriculum Fair! Our 7th and 8th grade winners are going on to compete in the Northest Ohio Science and Engineering Fair at Cleveland State University. This is the 8th year that we have competed there - our students PLACED every year. Last year we had 12 students place - a record for us!
- Our Poetry Contest will be on Wednesday, 16 April this year. Please help your child memorize his/her poem. Parents are invited to the finals at 9 AM that day.
- SS. C&M Basketball Carnival at St. Joseph Academy this year, on Saturday, 24 March @ 9 AM. Come and cheer our teams!
- IF YOU HAVE NOT YET RE-REGISTERED for next year, your registration fee now includes a $10. late charge. If you are interested in remaining in our school, you MUST REGISTER ASAP. We are now opening registration to families outside our school. Don’t lose your place! And, “thank you” to those of you who have re-registered for next year. You made a great choice!
- FINALLY, IF YOU HAVEN’T COMPLETED YOUR 20 HOURS OF VOLUNTEERING, you will receive a message in the next few weeks. Help out with the Auction Committee (leave a message at school for Sandy Stary) or at the Easter Bunny breakfast (leave a message for Heather McPherson).
