FEBRUARY HIGHLIGHTS
Catholic Schools Week
– The annual Catholic Schools Week
celebration begins
with a Kick-Off Liturgy Sunday, January 29, followed by
an Open House. It would
be a great testimony to St. Jane School if all our
school families were present for
this event. Look for an itinerary of all the week’s
activities to be included in
January 25 th’s
Wednesday Folder.
Super Bingo – The
date for the Athletic Association’s Super Bingo has been
changed to Sunday, February 12, due to a conflict with
“An Evening with Mary”.
Tickets with the original date have been issued and are
being used for the new
date. Please mark your calendars and enjoy an afternoon
with family and friends.
In addition, pull tabs, split the deck, and split the
pot are being offered during
Bingo.
Paper – Each
student’s supply list included a ream of copy paper, which is used for
all classroom copies. Unfortunately, all that paper has
been used and there is four
months left of the 2011-12 school year. So we are
requesting that any family who
is able to do so to please send a ream of paper to
school. You may wish to check
the sale papers for good prices. Please know that your
generosity is most
appreciated as it helps us stretch our budget.
Lent – The Lenten
Season begins Ash Wednesday, February 22, with 9:30 Mass.
Ashes are to be distributed during this Liturgy. During
Lent, age-appropriate
classroom activities and lessons are being planned by
the teachers. The students
in Grade 6 are also looking forward to their performance
of the Living Stations,
which is to be held Friday, March 30, at 1:00 and 7:00.
Pre-School – The
St. Jane Pre-School is offering a Full Day Option for the
2012-2013 school year for 3 and 4 year olds. A daily
half-day option (8:00-11:00)
is also going to be available. All academic skills are
going to be covered during
the morning session. The afternoon session will include
lunch, recess, quiet time,
and enrichment activities. The Pre-School is also moving
to what is now the
Kindergarten as more space is needed to accommodate a
full-day program. More
information will be available once the budget process is
completed and tuition and
fees are determined. It is our hope that this new option
accommodates the needs
of our families and we are looking forward to moving
ahead with our youngest
students.
