Long-Sleeve Relief
The Stewardship Club is helping Catholic
Charities with the annual collection of longsleeved cotton shirts for migrant farmworkers.
Thick cotton long-sleeve shirts are the most
desirable. Catholic Charities specifies that they
do not want dress shirts or sweatshirts.
These shirts will protect the farmworkers from
bugs, mosquitoes, sunburn, and scratches.
Cotton shirts offer the most protection against
harmful chemicals and pesticides.
Thank you for helping this very worthwhile
project. The shirts can be dropped off in the
school office any day during Lent, up to April 2.
Thank you for helping the needy.

Our recent Open House was a huge
success. Many thanks to the Parent
Ambassadors and everyone that posted an
Open House Sign on your front yard. Over
100 signs were displayed around the
community. Our faculty, staff, and
ambassadors where on hand to greet
prospective parents and students.
Tours were provided as well as first-hand
information from the teachers who
answered questions, demonstrated our
school’s instructional technologies, and
reinforced our commitment to faith
formation and Catholic school values.
We appreciate your enthusiasm and
support!
