Mission Statement
New Spirit Merchandise
Dear SJN Families,
I am very excited to share new SJN spirit gear with all of you! Mrs. Stephanie Rohwer has been a critical element in getting this new spiritgear designed and available to our SJN families. We are excited to host our very first SJN Spirit pop-up shop in Marian Hall this Friday beginning at 2:50 following Stations of the Cross. You will be able to see each item that we have in stock as well as place orders. Orders placed by April 19 will be stocked before the Okarche Track Meet!
These shirts may be worn by students on Spirit/Free Dress Days, but please know that these items are not approved as part of the normal school uniform. As we continue to stock spirit items, we may identify potential items to be considered as part of our school uniform including an updated SJN School Spirit Shirt. The required shirt for students to wear at this year's Okarche Track Meet will still be the light blue spirit shirt. Stop by the pop-up shopping event this Friday or return the order form with cash/check to the school office to order these new options! The order form with a preview of each item is available HERE. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to Stephanie at stephanierohwer@gmail.com.
Sincerely,
Natalie Johnson
Principal

Okarche Track Meet
Dear SJN K-6th Grade Families,
SJN Students in grades K-6 will venture to Okarche on Friday, May 3 for our annual track meet. A paper copy of the permission form is being sent home with each student today. It is also linked below if an additional copy is needed. If your child is riding with another parent, please pay special attention to information regarding Oklahoma car seat laws and send the proper safety seat for grades K-2. Please remember that students should wear their light blue spirit shirt. We have these in stock in the office if you need to purchase one. Don't forget to bring essentials like your lawn chairs, sunscreen and drinks/snacks! There will be a concession stand for food and snack purchases if needed. You may access the field map HERE. We will depart from school immediately following morning assembly and will gather with other schools for opening prayer before events begin. If your child wins a ribbon, please make certain it is labeled with name & event and then given to his/her teacher. We will announce all ribbons at morning assembly on a later date. Once your child finishes his/her events for the day, you may sign him/her out be locating me out on the field.
Please remember to be respectful to the Holy Trinity campus and others by keeping these requests in mind:
- As stated in the Archdiocesan Pet Policy, pets and animals are not permitted at school functions.
- Students and families should not bring sports equipment to the track meet. This includes but is not limited to footballs, frisbees, basketballs, etc.
- Holy Trinity has requested that students not play on playground equipment.
- Please be diligent to supervise children at all times. While the field and grounds at Holy Trinity will be filled with SJN families and families of those attending from other Catholic schools, we will not be protected by outside individuals and others not associated with our event. Please be vigilant to keep our children safe!
Thanks for your support and GO FALCONS!
Sincerely,
Natalie Johnson
Principal
