Weekly Update
Week of May 10th - Distance Learning
Principal's Corner
Dear OLPH Families,
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all our OLPH Mothers, Grandmothers, and any others that take on a Mother role! I pray you enjoy your Sunday with your family. These next few weeks in May will definitely be busy as we gear up to close the school year. After many discussions we've decided to alter our end of the year calendar.

First Communion on Hold
I know that this year was special for our families as our 3rd grade students were scheduled to make their First Communion. However First Communions have been placed on hold. We may push this sacrament into the summer. We will keep you posted as guidelines change.
Required Parent Hours and Maintenance Day
20 Hours Required- NOW only 10 Hours Required
1 Maintenance Day- If you were unable to fulfill this requirement, please contact the school to see how you can still complete.
3 Mandatory Parent Meetings- ONLY 2 parent meetings required (these are the 2 meetings that already took place before the school closure)
- As always any donations to the classroom, teachers, and overall school can be made to offset any required hours or meetings not fulfilled.

CORRECTION TO DISNEYLAND RAFFLE LETTER
There was a misprint on the original letter sent home. Families are only asked to sell 20 Disneyland raffle tickets. If you submitted $30 we can add 10 more Disneyland raffle tickets in your name. We have plenty of tickets left over, feel free to purchase more.
Nite at the Races & Raffles REMINDER
If you have sold your tickets and would like to turn them in, you may do so during the Monday pick-ups. If you need more Disney or Las Vegas tickets, feel free to call us ahead of time and we can have them ready for Monday pick-up. You may also pick up from the office on Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays from 8-12pm
Thank you for your support!

NEW- Financial Information
I am aware that other private schools have offered stipends or financial aid, and I wish our school was in a financial position to be able to offer such assistance. To date we have lost about $80,000 in preschool revenue and fundraisers. We are so appreciative of our parents that continue to make their tuition payments and have supported us with the Las Vegas Fundraiser and Disneyland Fundraiser.
If you are aware of anyone that would be a willing donor to our school please share the link below.
