SAVE THE PARENTAL NOTICE OF ABORTION LAW!
State lawmakers are meeting on October 19 and they are considering Repealing the Parental Notice of Abortion Act. We must act to prevent this! 72% of all Illinois voters agree that parents
or an adult guardian should be informed if their child is seeking an abortion, yet the Illinois General Assembly continues to threaten the repeal of Illinois' Parental Notice of Abortion law.
Please join us in contacting your state legislators to support our God-given right to support and protect our children. Go to www.ilcatholic.org to read the Illinois bishops letter and to find out how to contact your state legislator to defeat this bill. And, please ask another family member or friend to help join the effort to defeat this bill.
Masks
Please see below from the CDC on proper face masks!
Please send your child to school EACH DAY with 2 clean and well fitting face masks

Please make sure that the person dropping off or picking up your child is aware that they should never be using the same way in as the same way out.
