St. Lawrence Every Friday Note
December 2, 2022
Weekly Update
***1 Hour Late Start On Monday December 5th- Doors open at 8:25am***
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! This week we are celebrating the 1st week of Advent. Advent is a time for waiting and we patiently wait for the coming of Jesus. Coming out of Thanksgiving and considering all that we are thankful for, we now transition to the greatest thing that could have happened to the world, the coming of our Savior. Please join us in our month long celebration of the nativity of our Lord whenever you are able, through school activities or by attending church masses (schedule listed below).
The school is currently searching for a part time custodian. If you are interested, please contact the school office and we will be glad to share the details.
Christmas Concert and Christmas Market
Afterwards, you are invited to the gym for our 1st Christmas Market. Our students have been creating crafts for holiday gifts and they will be offered at this one time only event. This is a special market in that the items are free! The only thing we ask is for a free-will donation. Hot chocolate and cookies will be offered as well. All proceeds from the market will go towards the purchase of an air conditioner for the gymnasium.
