Charger Check-In
August 25, 2022
A Note from Ms. Owens
Thank you all the school families who were able to attend Curriculum/Back to School Night on Wednesday evening. Welcoming parents and guardians into the school building gave me so much joy. It has been too long since we've been able to do this regularly!
Thank you, also, to FSA, Mrs. Hutchinson and Mrs. Schultz for hosting and organizing last week's Ice Cream Social. We had a great crowd with lots of happy children running around with their friends.
Congratulations to the 2022 Ice Cream Social Raffle Winners
- 1st prize $250 SCA tuition credit - Cara Hanrahan
- 2nd prize one free SCA sport registration - Shannon Markey
- 3rd prize $50 Culvers gift card - Catie Moriarty
We are thrilled that the Kane Hall bathrooms opened to student-use today! Thank you, thank you, thank you the Men's Club for funding this renovation for the parish and thank you to Ron Badali for the time and labor that he put into moving this project to the finish line.
Families who registered for Morning Care and/or Extended Care will see the registration fee on their October tuition invoice (from Blackbaud). Those families who have already paid the registration fee will see that payment has been made on their October invoice.
