A Note from Ms. Owens
We are in the midst of our Red Ribbon Week celebrations at St. Catherine. Each school year, our Student Council helps students recognize the importance of making healthy decisions. We do this with themed dress up days, student pledges, classroom activities, and student raffles. We had silly socks and wacky hair on Wednesday. On Thursday, we took a "vacation from bad habits" and went to Hawaii on Thursday. And, on Friday, we will "USA away drugs" dressed in red, white and blue along with student raffles throughout the day. Thank you to Mrs. Felmon, Ms. Smith and Student Council for organizing the Red Ribbon Week activities.
On Friday, November 17, there will be NO extended care so we can safely facilitate the set up for that evening's Holiday Wishes Vendor Fair.
Thank you to everyone who visited Raising Cane's on Monday for FSA's October Eat & Earn!
Please return your baby bottles to school on Friday. They can also be dropped at church during mass this weekend.
