Dear Families,

Have a blessed weekend!

Parent Participation Information
Thank you for your patience as we input the September hours into the OnVolunteers system that have been completed. All completed hours should be updated by the end of the month.Please make sure you have the notification turned on so you will be notified when new tasks pop up. The Parish Education Committee (P.E.C.) will be sending home a letter shortly explaining how fees will be collected for “no-shows” (if you do not attend a task you have signed up for) and missed hours.
We are in dire need of people to sign up for Tuesday and Thursday cleaning from 5-7:30 p.m.
Spirit Wear on Hot Lunch Days
On Hot Lunch days, students are allowed to wear Celtics Spirit Wear with their uniforms. This is any of the “We are Celtics” shirts and hoodies purchased last year.
Our first Hot Lunch is on Wednesday, Sept. 27th. This month, it is also our Celtics Day (non-uniform day), we will allow students to wear non-uniform bottoms with their Celtics Spirit Wear. If your child does not have any Spirit wear, they can wear any green tops.
We will do an order of Celtics Spirit Wear soon! Stay tuned for the dates!
Orange Shirt Day – Sept. 28
Students are invited to wear an orange shirt/sweater with their uniform on Thursday, Sept. 28th.
This is NOT a non-uniform day.
School Mass- Food Bank Donations
Our second school mass of every month is also known as “Food Bank Mass”. We collect food bank donations for the local St. Vincent de Paul food bank at St. Luke’s Parish. We appreciate all your donations. Those in our community who need some help with food security can contact St. Luke’s for support. Our first Food Bank Mass will be on September 29th.
