Giant Eagle will be giving away $1MM in educational rewards to area schools. Let's make sure that we earn our share! It’s easy to register your Giant Eagle card. Click here for flyer.
We would like to thank all the volunteers, Teachers, Parents, and supporters of the St. Francis de Sales Christmas bazaar. This is a huge event and would not be possible without everyone's hard work and dedication. While this is a fundraising event for the school, our main focus is that the students of St. Francis have fun and enjoy the day. Again thank-you very much and we are looking forward to next year. -Mike & Joni O'Neil

FRIDAY - Bazaar Day - CAFETERIA KITCHEN IS CLOSED. All students should bring a packed lunch from home. All students may have a CASUAL DAY according to handbook guidelines on Friday, 11/18. It is suggested that students wear Christmas colors! Of course they may wear a bazaar T-shirt from any year!
CALENDAR REVISION - the Bazaar will be held on FRIDAY ONLY - not Saturday as listed in the green family calendar.
NO SCHOOL - Wednesday, 11/23 through Friday, 11/25 in honor of Thanksgiving!
Let's WALK through the WEEKLY WORD!
In an effort to raise awareness of our newsletter, we have been sending the Weekly Word home to all of our families for the past few weeks. After Thanksgiving, we will return to sending paper copies ONLY to those families who DID NOT sign up to 'GO GREEN' at the beginning of the school year. If you have changed your preference in how to receive communication (paper vs. electronic) please let Linda know in the office.
There are now fewer postings to the Scoop during the week as we try to include information in the Weekly Word. On Thursdays, the Word is sent out to about 60 of our families who have requested paper copies, and it is also posted to the Scoop for our 'GREEN' families, along with any other flyers/forms that were sent home that week. This is why we request electronic copies of items needing to go home. We are happy that so many of our families have chosen the electronic version so that we can save paper. However, we want to be sure that on Thursdays you will check the Scoop and read the Weekly Word. There is also an archive section on the right side of the Scoop where you can download previous copies of the Weekly Word.
The WW newsletter is divided into sections. On the left side we list calendar changes and reminders. Please try to check your green family calendar often because most of the information is already printed in there and will not be repeated. After the calendar section there is a list of 'Enclosed Today.' There is often something printed on the back of the WW (to save paper) and this will usually be the second page of the electronic version. If an item needs to be returned to school it will be marked in BOLD and should be downloaded and printed out. It is strongly suggested that items needing to be returned be done so in a timely fashion so that they are not forgotten! The last section of the left column is for prayer requests.
The main body of the newsletter contains information of interest for our families. Sometimes there is a right column that will help to clarify policies in our handbook. There are other small boxes (such as the upper left corner or across the bottom) so be sure to read the ENTIRE newsletter! We do ask that submissions for the newsletter be received via email by Tuesday of the week of publication. We will try to accommodate requests for inclusion of information as long as space permits.
