We have been busy preparing for the Christmas Program. On Wednesday morning your children are to be dropped off at St. Patrick's Church by 8:00. Please do not take them to OLM School. I will be at the church by 7:30. We are having a dress rehearsal that morning. When we are done we will be going to Emeritus and The Hampshire for a prayer service. When we are finished we will be going back to school. All of the parents that have said they will drive will be used. I will write a note in the planner to let you know what time you need to be back at the church.
Your children should be at the church Wednesday evening by 6:15. They are to wear nice clothes. It would be nice if the girls were in dresses. I know that you will enjoy the Christmas Program. We have been working hard on it and most of the children know the words.
On Tuesday morning, December 13, the first grade will be participating in the morning Advent Prayer. You are all welcome to come. It will start at 8:00.
I have received many of the food items for the "Spirit of Christmas" dinner and many items for the D Street Shelter. Thank you to all. If you have not turned in anything please do so this week by Thursday, December 15. Thank you for all of your support.
Friday is a half day with dismissal at 12:30. Remember, there is NO extended care that day. The school closes down for Christmas vacation at 12:30.
