Dear Parents,
We had a wonderful Catholic Schools Week! Thank you to everyone who was able to come to the Mass
on January 26th and for your support of the activities we had during the week. I am grateful to Arletta
Bertrand and Richard Dorner for coming in and talking about what their grade school experiences were
like in the 1950’s. I am also grateful to Home and School for their help with the CSW activities, in
particular Sherriee Peppin for chairing the Formal Lunch. Sherriee and Connie Mrotek popped the
popcorn for the movie on Friday afternoon. Thank you to Steve and Jill Marsh for arranging for the
refreshments after Mass. Evergreen Theater has been rescheduled for March 18th.
We held the Jump Rope for Heart on Friday and the students raised $1508.00 for the American Heart
Association!
Home and School’s Computers for Education fund raiser produced about $370.00. Thank you for your
support and to Gerard Deprez for chairing this activity.
The Luxemburg Council of the Knights of Columbus is sponsoring the annual Knowledge Contest on
Saturday, February 8th, at 10:30 am in St. Mary’s School lunchroom. The spelling and math contests are
open to all 5th through 8th graders. Registration is held the morning of the contest.
Don’t forget that this is “Seroogy’s Candy Bar” weekend at church. This sale supports the bus
transportation for fifth and sixth grade band students at St. Mary School. Pick up your Valentine treats
in the church hall!
The Scrip proceeds are in for the first and second quarters of the school year. Total sales were
$125,245.09 which netted a profit of $4428.23. Thank you to all who purchase Scrip and for the
volunteers who manage the program!
