PARENT COMMUNICATION with the school is very important and is always encouraged.  As we begin this new school year we request that if at anytime you, the parent, have a classroom concern that you first address that concern with the teacher.  If you do not feel that your concern is resolved satisfactorily, please contact Mrs. Jacobs.  If, at that point, you are still not satisfied you should formally request to speak to a School Advisory Council member.  The member will then present your concern to the School Advisory Council for discussion.  Please be advised that members of the School Advisory Council can only act on matters presented to them when they meet as a group. 

TENNIS SHOES with white soles should be worn by all students during P.E. class. If your student doesn’t wear tennis shoes to school on a regular basis, it would be ideal if you could send a pair of tennis shoes to school that can be left here. This is not only a safety issue for the students but it will also help protect our gym floor. 

RESPONSE FORMS – We will send any unfinished or other needed response sheets home with the students with the monthly billing next week.  Please fill everything out and return it to school.  If you have already sent the forms in to the office, thank you very much! 

TUTORING will begin on Tuesday, September 7th.  Tutoring offered:

  • Math with Mrs. Sanders:  Monday, 3:30-5 p.m.; Wednesday and Friday, 7:30-8:00 a.m.
  • Reading with Mrs. Eaton:  Monday and Tuesday, 7:30-8:00 a.m. and 3:30-4:30 p.m.

WE NEED YOUR HELP – Our teachers meet every Wednesday right after school. We would like to know if anyone is interested in helping us cover extended care for one (1) hour on Wednesdays so that all teachers can attend the meetings.  Also, we will need four (4) substitutes for half days on October 5th and February 8th.  Check your calendar and let us know if you can help.  Thank you.

SAVE YOUR BOX TOPS AND CAMPBELL’S SOUP LABELS – This year we will have a monthly contest among the classrooms and individual students.  Your child has been given sheets for Box Tops and labels with directions for both.  Please clip and save the labels to help our school.

INFANT JESUS OF PRAGUE PRAYER PROGRAM – This year we are continuing to pray for vocations to the priesthood. In an effort to involve our school families in our praying, we have developed the following program.  The school has purchased a statue of the Infant Jesus of Prague and produced a “week of prayers” to go together with the statue as it travels from family to family. The statue will be passed from one school family to the next at our weekly school Masses. Families may sign up to accept this traveling prayer service by contacting the school office. Instructions and a prayer binder will accompany the statue.   

GRANDPARENTS’ DAY CELEBRATION – On Wednesday, September 8th, we invite our grandparents and “grandfriends” to join us for the school Mass at 8:30 a.m. Following Mass, we will have donuts, coffee and juice in the Parish Hall.  After that, be ready to play some games as we will have a variety of them to entertain our guests. Guided tours of the school will be available to those who wish to see our facility.  Did you send out your invitations!  

AUCTION NEWS – Plans are under way for this year’s auction.  Because this is our primary fundraiser, we rely on contributions from our school families.  If you haven’t already done so, please send your family’s donation to the school as soon as possible.  If you don’t have an item or service that you would like to donate, please make a monetary donation so the auction committee can purchase an item or service on your behalf.  With your help, we can make this year’s auction a great success!  Some of the things the auction proceeds have supported in the past include: electrical re-wiring of the school, remodeling the cafeteria, purchasing the school bus, risers for the music program, bleachers for the gymnasium, and Mimio technology (similar to smart boards) for the classrooms.  Proceeds from this fundraiser are also used to send the students on educational field trips.  Thank you!!! 

HTCS ENDOWMENT FUND TICKETS – As you probably know, these $100 tax deductible tickets (with a chance of winning $100 weekly and other drawings of $250/$1,000/$1,500) are available now. If you wish to purchase one - or more – and if you know of someone who is interested in investing in the future of our children, contact Kathy at the school office for assistance. $100 winner – Mary Schwarz. 

ALL SPORTS – NEW INFORMATION! – PLEASE READ THIS AGAIN!
