Dear Parents,
Tuesday night, St. Paul School hosted a Catholic High School Information Night for our Jr. High Students. Thank you to Mrs. Romanelli for making the arrangements, TPG for providing refreshments, and all the Admissions Directors from the local Catholic High Schools that were here. If you could not make it last night, the schools do have Open Houses these next few weekends. See the attached flyers for details.
Thank you TPG for organizing Mom’s Night Out! Sounds like it was a Fun Night!
Please keep Mrs. O’Callaghan and her family in your prayers. Mrs. O’Callaghan’s father passed away a few weeks ago.
Save the date for Parent Teacher Conferences - November 23rd & 24th and our Christmas Concert - December 9
th at 7pm. More information will be coming soon.
Teachers are starting to schedule field trips. If you are asked to be a chaperone and you are driving students to and from the trip, please remember chaperones are expected to accompany the group from school to the field trip location and return directly to school afterward. To ensure we stay on schedule and stay safe,
please do not make any additional stops for food, drinks, or other errands during the trip. Please refer to the attached Field Trip Chaperone Guide.
Positive Office Referrals are given to students that are recognized by staff members for being respectful, having a positive attitude, showing responsibility, hard work, honesty, and self-control. The students will receive a certificate and are celebrated by the Office Staff.
Congratulations to Evan Beck, Mia Bellanca, Henry Nix, Liam Osborn, and Elianna Perillo for receiving a Positive Office Referral this week!If you have any questions, please contact me at any time:
