LENTEN SOUP AND SANDWICH
Lent is upon us.  As a mission of the church, the school hosts one of the
Lenten Soup and Sandwich lunches held on Wednesdays during the season. The meal is provided to those who attend the 11:00am mass each Wednesday during Lent.  

Our meal will be provided on March 2nd. 

Home and School along with the Advisory Council are the primary hosts, but if you, as a family within the school and a member of Home and School, would like to help, please  click here  to sign up.  We provide soups, sandwiches, desserts and can always use an extra helping hand to serve those who attend.   Email Tara O'Keefe , chair for Lenten Soup and Sandwich, with any questions.

STEPHEN BREEN TOURNAMENT
The Stephen Breen Wildcat Challenge Basketball Tournament is held annually with all proceeds benefitting the Stephen Breen Memorial Foundation. To date, this tournament has raised over $70,000. These proceeds are part of the $1.2 million that Stephen's Foundation has raised since inception. Over $900,000.00 has been provided in tuition assistance to children attending Catholic schools in the Diocese of Fort Worth, impacting the lives of more than 1,000 children from 700 different families at all 20 schools in the Diocese of Fort Worth. Additionally, Stephen's Foundation has sponsored cancer patient rooms at both Cook Children Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House to support children in their struggle against cancer.

Tournament games have begun and will continue  through Friday, March 11th.  This is a wonderful time to  support a great cause and watch some great 6th & 7th grade basketball too!  But we  need your help!

We will need some adult and youth volunteers to help  with the concessions and collecting money at the door. Youth  volunteers will receive service hours. If your interested in helping, please sign up here.

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T HEARD.....
This school year, we have a new policy in place regarding picking up your children for appointments.  To maximize classroom instruction time, we will call your student out of class at soon as you arrive on campus to sign them out.
