St. Columba Catholic School - News Every Week - 11/7/21
Good news! All of our plumbing issues are resolved! We will all be back on campus tomorrow!
This week is a short week between conferences and our two days off to honor our Veterans.
If you have not yet signed up for a Parent-Teacher Conference, please be sure to do so! All families are expected to attend. See more info below to sign up.
This Thursday and Friday, we do not have school to honor our Veterans. We are blessed to be a part of a community that is so directly impacted by individuals who made the choice to commit themselves to the service of our country. Our families are full of veterans, along with current active and reserve members of the military, who chose to serve all of us. As we enjoy these two days off, let us remember that is because of the commitment of men and women in our military, both past and present, that we are blessed to live in such a wonderful country!
To honor these Veterans, Active, and Reserve military members, we will be holding an Assembly on Wednesday, 11/10 at 8:15am in the Parish Hall. Your child's teachers should have connected with you about coming in if you are a veteran or active/reserve member on Wednesday.
If you or someone in your family is a service member or veteran and you would like for them to be recognized, please contact Mrs. Pearson at kinder@stcolumbaschool.org with the following information:
- Name of veteran or service member
- Branch of service
- Rank in service
- Years served
- Picture of veteran or service member
With a short week ahead of us, I wanted to use this newsletter to set aside some space below for upcoming important dates and events.
