Food Drive
The annual food drive will take place this week! We want to fill the local food shelf. Purchase an extra bag of groceries and bring it to school by Nov. 20. We will have the children bring the food to the altar during the Kinder/1st grade Mass.

Registration now open to all.

Aim Higher Tuition Grants are now open for the fall 2020-21 school year K-8.  Great news! – Once your child qualifies for this grant, they will get the grant every year until they graduate from grade 8 even if you transfer to another Catholic school. To apply for this grant, you must apply for financial assistance with TADS. (This is an needs based grant but don’t be afraid to apply. 11 kids got this grant at SWS this year)

Preschool Parents
The Starry Night Event takes place on March 28.
This is a fun night for adults in our community with dinner, bidding, and lots of fun. We have a sponsor who would like to see more preschool parents at the event so we are giving away two couple tickets per month.

Bring a spouse or bring a friend. The tickets are worth $100 ($50 per person). Each month we will draw 2. The first ones for November were drawn at the dinner last week. Two couple tickets per month up until the event.

Winners can only give them to another Little Saints family if they are unable to use them to attend.

Sweepstakes Tickets
Did you find these tickets in your child’s backpack a few weeks ago? If not, then please search now! These tickets are for some great cash prizes. K-8 families have $300 worth to see and preschool families have $50 to sell. The sweepstakes is our 2nd major fundraiser of the school year. All ticket stubs will be due in the office by the end of January. We wanted your to have them in your hands now so that you can ask relatives during the holiday gatherings!
