Principal Newsletter
From the Desk of Mrs. Riley
November 3, 2022
Dear Parents,
We are 2 days away from our 4th Annual "Fall Fest Auction" AND now game 6 of the World Series!!
Please note some important information and updates below:
- Feel free to wear your Phillies attire (optional). If wearing Phillies gear, jeans are permitted but please NO ripped jeans.
- We are working on having a big screen at Brookside Manor to watch the game.
- Remember to bring your auction ticket as this will serve as your entry to win door prizes!!!
- Cash, check, or credit card (credit card processing fees will apply) will be accepted as payment for our raffle tickets, specials, and live/silent auction.
- Also, don’t forget to coordinate with other families and classmates to win some of our awesome teacher experiences! Only one person in attendance needs to do the bidding. Those not attending can still contribute to win!
We can’t wait to "Party with a Purpose" as we raise money for OLGC School and celebrate our Phillies in the World Series!!!
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
