 ST. MARY CATHOLIC SCHOOL NEWS

June 2007

Dear Parent,

The 2006/07 school year has come to a successful completion.  Thank you for your awesome support and cooperation!

A very warm "Thank You" to Rick Vanasacker, Joel Whalen, Laura Castiglione and Bryan Krulikowski, Parent Club Officers for their hours of dedicated work.  A very Special Thank You to Auction Chairpersons, Patti and Mark Eason; Robyn and Chris Thompson; Sue and Rick Vanasacker; and Kaye and Chuck Wilson and the entire auction committee.  Through the hard work of many individuals $50,000 will be added to the school budget to reduce the parish subsidy and pay for many enrichment activities and supplies.

Lynn Brennan, lunch program director, Madeline Rousseau cook, Carol Scobel assistant, planned and prepared many lunches.  All of us, parents and students alike, are grateful.  To the countless parent volunteers who assisted serving lunch and cleaning trays, thanks as well.

The "I Love to Read" program coordinated by Mrs. Karen Alexander, was a huge success once again.  Qualifying students participated in the ice cream social sponsored by the Parent Club.  Other program incentives were donated by our local Subway and Tiffany Pizzeria.  Please support our sponsors.

Thank you to one and all for a successful year for St. Mary Catholic School, "the Good News" in education!
