CATHOLIC SCHOOLS WEEK -- News for the week of 1/30-2/3

Post date: Jan 27, 2017 5:30:19 PM

Catholic Schools Week kicks off with a Mass for all on Sunday, 1/29 at 9:00 a.m., followed by Open House from 10:15-12:00. 3rd graders who would like to volunteer to demonstrate Reading games on our BrightLink Projector can join me in our classroom during Open House. Students are asked to wear their school uniforms to Mass and Open House. We are excited to meet many new families and show them what makes St. Linus so special!

Tuesday, 1/31 is Student Appreciation Day. Students may dress down (but wear gym shoes because we do have P.E.) Juice and donuts will be served in the morning to all students, thanks to FTC!

More information about CSW activities is posted on the school website and on the blue information page sent home Friday.

Please support the Baby Bottle Project by donating spare change. Bottles and info were sent home with the oldest child from each St. Linus family. Please return bottles by Feb. 17.
