Dear Parents:

Lenten Prayer

1.    THANK YOU:  It was a successful first electronic Wednesday newsletter last week.  We received a number of positive responses regarding “less paper” and ease of receiving the newsletter electronically.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Moms who came in each week to help stuff the Wednesday envelopes:  Vilma Castro, Elena Pineda, and Teresita Bravo.  We will miss seeing you each week as we save all that paper.

2.    VALENTINE’S DAY:  In honor of St. Valentine, Student Council is sponsoring “Red, White and Pink Day” tomorrow, Thursday, February 14.  Students may wear jeans or uniform pants with any appropriate red, white or pink top. 

3.      PRESIDENT’S DAY:  Monday, February 18, is the President’s Day holiday.  There will be no school and no extended care.

4.      ACADEMIC DECATHLON:  The following students and their coaches, Mr. Rick Ferranti, Mrs. Lucie Ferranti, and Ms. Olcese, have been working hard preparing for the Academic Decathlon that will be held on March 8 at St. Pius School.  Colton Huynh, Ethan Williams, Matt Boland, Maddison Morgan, Emma Thordsen, Adrianna Zuno, Lauren Ferrando, Bhaven Patel, William Morgan, Alexis Navat, and Alternates:  Bhavik Patel, Justin Gonzales.

5.      REMINDER:  On non-uniform dress days, especially Fridays, all students should wear tennis shoes for P.E.

6.      HOT LUNCH:  A number of students have come to school without a lunch or lunch money.  Please make sure your child has a lunch or lunch money with him or her. 

Blessings,

Mrs. Trelut
