READ ACROSS AMERICA DAY - FRIDAY, MARCH 2

On Friday, March 2, we will celebrate a nationwide “Read Across America” day in honor of Dr. Seuss’s Birthday. Because we had 100 percent turnout for the Book Fair last November, we will have a non-uniform dress day with a slight twist – students may wear “comfy” clothes – something they’d wear to curl up and read a book in.  (For safety reasons, students must wear socks and tennis shoes). This will be a fun day as we join with other schools across the country in celebrating the birthday of one of the most beloved children’s authors of all time, Theodor Seuss Geisel.

Fish Fry – Friday, March 2

Our Home and School Association, in partnership with the Knights of Columbus, will sponsor the Parish Lenten Fish Fry on Friday, March 2. They will sell fish & chips, clam chowder, cheese pizza, and drinks. The last day to pre-order is Thursday, March 1st.
