Catholic Schools Week

  Sunday we kicked off Catholic Schools Week with an open house at DeSales.  Many parents and students volunteered their time to give tours.  Today we had our opening assembly and prayer service.  Dr. Fike challenged us to collect $4000 in gift cards and donations to send to our sister school in NYC that was devastated by Hurricane Sandy.  St. Francis DeSales School in Belle Harbor, NY is trying to rebuild after sustaining severe damage.  Many of the families lost everything and the gift cards will be distributed to them so they can enjoy an evening out or replace items that have been lost. Thank you in advance for your generous donations!
On Friday we will wind up the week of celebration with a pep rally and popcorn and a movie.  If you have any favorite G rated DVD's send them in and the students will vote on one to watch.
