Dear St. Patrick families,
Congratulations to Dr. Illa, our teachers and students, for the very fine Christmas performance this past Friday evening. It was as fine a show as any we have presented in the past. It was very nice to see all the families who made it a point to stay for the fifth grade performance. Kudos to all for a very fine job.
The Home and School Association would like to thank everyone for their help and generosity with the Easter Seals donation drive. They raised $871. Our next Home and School meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 11th, at 6 PM in the church basement.
Our school band will be presenting two Christmas concerts next week. The parent concert will be Wednesday evening at 7 PM in the church basement. The school concert will take place after the all school Mass on Thursday in the church basement.
Our last dress down for 2016 will be Friday, Dec. 16th.
The cost is fifty cents for all students. Tights or leggings alone are not acceptable for the girls to wear. Some sort of pant or skirt still needs to be worn.
The school is looking for someone who could possibly assist us with some public relation work, particularly assisting with helping to create and submit articles to either the Record Courier or the Catholic Exponent. Please call the office you would be able to volunteer with this project.
Tuition statements went home on Thursday, Dec. 1st. Monthly payments are due on the 15th. Payments mailed during the Christmas break are due by Dec. 31st to avoid a late fee. Payments can be mailed to the school or dropped off at the church rectory or in the collection basket.
Credits for gift card purchases have been applied and revised tuition statements have been sent home. If you believe you have earned credits and did not receive a request to complete a Purchase Agreement form or a revised tuition statement, please call the school. The certificate program ends April 30th and revised statements for the next credit reporting cycle will be sent out in early May.
Have a great weekend! Stay warm since it looks like we will see some winter weather. And, as always ….. GO PANTHERS!
