Dear Parents,
 
This week Dance Tree will start their classes at St. Mary School.  Students who are interested in dance or spirit squad should register for the classes by Monday.

Tumble Bus classes start this week.  Children in Preschool and Kindergarten will visit the Tumble Bus this week for free and then sign-up forms will be sent home.
 
Tuesday, August 31, is our first Bonus Day for the magazine sale.  Students who turn in 4 or more orders on or before Tuesday may come in Free Dress.  Orders that are placed online count for this.  The office will be checking for the school orders.  Your child’s orders need to be placed online before they come to school in free dress. Students who are not ordering online need to bring the order and payment with them when they arrive at school.
 
Wednesday, September 1, is an Early Dismissal Day.
 
Any parent who wishes to volunteer at the school will need to take a VIRTUS class and have a background check clearance.  Parents who want to help with field trips must also have a driving record clearance.  These forms are available in the office.  Please do not wait for a class party or field trip to do this since both items usually take several weeks to complete.
 
We have a couple of yearbooks left that have not been picked up.  If you purchased a yearbook last year stop by the office, we might have your book.  Parents who forgot to purchase a book may now get one for $35.00 while the supply lasts.
 
Next Sunday is First Sunday Mass.  Students who attend the 10:30 Mass in Full Dress uniform, and sign in, may earn a Free Dress coupon for Thursday, September 9.
 
Monday, September 6, is a school holiday.
 
The Parish Bazaar is coming October 9 and 10 and it promises to be bigger and better than ever so plan to attend.
 
Reminder: students who arrive after 8:00am must stop by the office for a Tardy Slip.  Eleven (11) tardies constitutes an unexcused absence.
