Announcements Week of September 14, 2015



Candy Bars- for Fund Raising
Candy bars will be available Monday afternoon to assist parents in their fund raising requirements. Smart Tuition lists the required fund raising requirement and Mrs. Resto or Alan will assist parents if they do not understand the fund raising requirements.

Sacramental Program
Parents may register with Brianna in Alan's office for the sacramental program on Monday and Tuesday from 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM.The last day for registration is Sunday September 20th from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Baptism - any student who has not been Baptized. Mr. Woods and Fr. Antonio will meet with the parents who request Baptism for their child. They ned to be registered also.
Grade 2 - Sacrament of Reconciliation
Grade 3 - First Holy Communion
Grades 7 & 8 - Sacrament of Confirmation
There is no charge for registration or the program.
The requirement for the program is that ALL children must attend the 1:00 PM Mass each Sunday with Mr. Woods. If you have prior commitments on Sundays please do not register you child for the program this year but wait until the child can attend Mass on Sundays.
There will be no classes on Sundays only Mass. Mr. Woods/Mr. Placido/Ms. Saville will be teaching the classes during the regular school day. So the ONLY commitment is regular Mass attendance which is part of the Ten Commandments view to honor God on the sabbath. The class attaneds Mass as a group so that they learn to sing as a group and participate fully during Mass.
ONLY document need -Baptismal certificate if not handed in at registration. Parents will not be able to register without a copy of the Baptismal certificate.

********UNIFORM COMPANY********
Again, I apologize for the mess that has been created by Ideal Uniform Company. If you have an order with Ideal that has not been sent - CANCEL it and tell them thy are not to use your credit card. Mr. Woods will be meeting with the old uniform company on Monday to sign a contract with them. Information will be sent home as soon as everything is worked out. Please understand that IDEAL uniform company was highly recommended with a cheaper price - but as many have found out their service is absolutely terrible. All parents will receive information this week as soon as I sign a contract with the company.

Cornerstone Student Information System
The cornerstone Information System is being updated this week. As soon as the updates are completed Alan will be available to give passwords for parents so that they may view their child's academic progress on a weekly basis. All information will be distributed as soon we are notified that the system is up and ready.
