1. CHRISTMAS
CONCERT.
The 1st, 3rd, and 4th grade students
present “An Early American Christmas,” our 2007 Christmas Concert on
Thursday, December 6. Performance times are 1 p.m. and 7 p.m., and all
are welcome to either performance.
2.
PICK
UP TIME.
Final school
dismissal is at 2:30 p.m. For those of you who are picking up on time
“thank you”. We are noticing that some families are beginning to come
later. This leaves many students milling around the parking lot and the
lower level hallways. Supervision becomes difficult outside as
parents/grandparents come later to avoid waiting and the number of
students waiting increases.
3.
VOLUNTEERS
NEEDED AT WEEKEND MASSES!
Bigg's generously donates 6% of all Bigg's

2008 schedule of volunteers, and we need volunteers to cover the
following Masses each month: 4:30 Mass on the 1st, 3rd,
or 4th weekends of every month; 8:00 Mass on the 4th
Sunday of every month; and 11:30 Mass on the 1st or 3rd
Sunday of every month. Volunteers arrive about 15 minutes before Mass
begins, and stay after Mass about 15 minutes. If you can take one of
these open volunteer spots, please call Carol Jacob at 451-1344 or
