Dear Parents,
Thank you for your prayers for our students that received the Sacrament of Reconciliation. It was a peaceful and prayerful experience for the children.
Auction News Awesome, spectacular, and fun were only a few words that could describe the auction last Saturday night. A special thank you to our auction co-chairs, Susan Kenny and Robin Sergent along with the auction committee members: Marcella and Eddie Velasquez, Pam Somers, Susan Lihudis, Christa and Adam Caballero, Nancy Diaz, Marietta Dasalla, Tiffany Tolbert, Sally Turner, Pilita Basto, Stacy Beckman, John Pavelcik, and many volunteers that helped to make this night a huge success. The bid cards kept going up to raise $20,000 for the fund-an-item to redo the grass field. Approximately, $48,000 was raised at the silent and live auction after expenses. Thank you for your generous donations and unending volunteering to make this event a smashing success. The new name of the gym will be the Dean and Jean Baumgartner gym.

Angelorum This Lent, the students are collecting baby items for Angelorum to provide baby layette items for mothers in need. It is a worthwhile organization that appreciates donations of diapers, new baby blankets, clothes and items a new mother would need for a baby. The last day for collection will be Holy Thursday. Thank you.
