PRINCIPAL'S CORNER

Dear SPCCS Community,


Our annual Golf Classic is right around the corner on Monday, April 3 at Tampa Palms Golf & Country Club. You do not have to be a golfer to attend. We are offering a special discounted rate of $150 for SPCCS friends and family and co-workers. There are also volunteer opportunities for service hours (see below). All proceeds benefit our wonderful school!


You are also invited to a fun, community event next Sunday, March 19 from 1:00-5:00pm for the 2nd annual Corvette Car Show. There will be family fun and refreshments to enjoy. If you are interested in volunteering for a couple hours at our information table, please email me directly (more details below).


This is a friendly reminder that classes resume Wednesday, March 15. Thank you for entrusting your child(ren) in our care! It is such a blessing to serve our school community.


Have a blessed week!


Dr. LaTonya White, Principal

St. Peter Claver Catholic School
