Principal Newsletter
From the Desk of Mrs. Riley
November 4, 2021
Dear Parents,
Our annual Veterans Day Ceremony will be held next Thursday, November 11th at 2:00 PM outdoors in the back lot weather permitting. If a member of your family is a veteran and would like to be a guest at the ceremony, please email me at briley@olgc.org. Please email the name, relation and branch of service. Along with the veteran, two additional guests are welcome to attend. Should the weather be inclement, a phone call will be sent out Thursday morning. We look forward to celebrating this very special day with those who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms.
Our Scholastic Book Fair Fundraiser was a huge success! We exceeded our goal allowing us to raise over $1000 and the students had a wonderful experience! Thank you for your support and for encouraging our students to read! Book Fair receipts have all been sent home. Please send in your payments by Wednesday, November 10th.
Thank you for your constant support and prayers for our school. I encourage you to continue to support our work as we advance our mission to provide a transformative education steeped in academics and faith to our deserving students. There is no greater investment for forming our future saints than a Catholic education!
Please carefully review this week's newsletter for many reminders and updates. We thank you for entrusting your children to us and for the sacrifices you make each day to send your child(ren) to Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic School.
God's peace,
Mrs. Barbara Riley
Principal

Pro Tips
- You can set "watch" items you're interested in now, and receive text/email alerts when someone bids on them
- Consider group bidding! For larger items or class-related items (A Week of Dress Down Days for Your Child's Class, Limo Lunch with the Principal) - coordinate with other families to designate one representative to bid for the group, and split the cost!

- All major credit cards will be accepted - Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover
The winners of our Money Trees and $500 School Tuition Voucher will also be announced next weekend. Chances to win the money trees will be sold in the back of church again this weekend after all the masses. Please send in the chances for the $500 School Tuition Voucher by November 11th. If paying by Venmo, please still send in the chances with your information.
Just ONE WEEK until our 3rd Annual "Fall Fest Auction" goes LIVE! Program books will be going home early next week to all school families. We are looking forward to a fun weekend of bidding and winning!
