"Inspiring students to love God, their Catholic faith and learning"
From the Office
We have made changes to our website. Please use this link: St. Peter JC to access our webpage for the future. We will no longer use the St. Peter Interparish google site. Please save this link in your browser.
We are in need of reams of paper to make it through the rest of the school year. Please consider donating some! You may bring them directly to the school office. Thank you in advance!!

Students entering Kindergarten will be required to have the following:

Fundraising
Scrip News:
End of Year Statements were sent home last week. Please look them over, check where you want your money to go, sign them and return them to school ASAP. These are required to be returned by May 6th, or your money will be donated to St. Peter School. 

No scrip April 18 thru April 22.

Arris’ Bistro has closed, but any gift cards can be used at Arris’ Pizza. If you order any Arris’ Pizza cards you will probably get Bistro cards until I run out, so Arris’ can get them used up.

Scrip will not be offered the last week of school (May 16 thru May 20). I will not be here to run orders. 

Scrip will be offered during the summer every other week. I will let you know exact dates in upcoming newsletters.

I have 2 $1,000 Lowes scrip cards in stock if anyone is purchasing anything big from Lowes and would like to buy them.  Please let me know.
 
Other Fundraisers: 
I still have World's Finest Chocolate Bars money that needs to be returned ASAP. We need to close out the books for the year. We need to get the money distributed to the appropriate places.  
Grandfather Clock
This beautiful Grandfather Clock was handmade by Fred Lueckenhoff. He donated this clock, and a few others, to St. Peter Big Bucks several years ago. Larry Herzing won this particular clock during a Big Bucks Live Auction and has since donated it to St. Peter Catholic School. The clock workings are from Germany and there is a brass engraved name tag on the inside with Fred's name on it. Mr. Lueckenhoff's time and talents have always been a real treasure to St. Peter!
To help raise money for our St. Peter Scholarship fund, we are raffling off this gem! The St. Peter Scholarship fund helps to pay school fees for our families that can not afford it on their own. Raffle tickets are $2 each or 6 for $10. You can print those from here and turn them into the school office with your payment. The drawing will be held on May 9, 2022. If you would like to see the clock in person, it is located just outside of the school office. Please help support this cause and take home this breathtaking piece of craftsmanship!

Lands End Uniforms
Dear Lands’ End Preferred School Partners,
 
Spring is officially here, and we have some great updates to share with you! We have a very positive outlook for 2022, with the projects and initiatives set before the pandemic now fully underway.
 
INVENTORY & ORDER PROCESSING TIMEFRAMES
This past 1 year+ was indeed a challenge. Not only for Lands’ End, but for all retailers globally. Today, we’re happy to be in a very good inventory position with the majority of key uniform styles now available. More importantly, processing timeframes for shopping site orders of in-stock products are around just 7-10 days (add a few additional days for embroidery and/or hemming)! We also have a new partnership that allows us to expand our embroidery capacity further which will make for a much improved peak ordering season this year.
 
YOUTH SIZING CONVERSIONS
Communication was sent regarding the resizing of all youth products in order to better align with other major retailers and brands your families are already familiar with. With the elimination of “Little Kid”/”Little Girl”/”Little Boy”/”Big Girl”/”Big Boy” size group distinctions, sizing will simply be “Kids”, “Girls”, or “Boys”, start from XXS (2-3) or XS (4-5) and go upward from there. We hope this will make shopping more familiar and easier for families. I have attached a message regarding the sizing update that includes a link to additional FAQs, as well attached the PDF of an easy reference chart for old vs new sizes and fit guide for your convenience. This project is near completion, and we expect all school shopping sites to be automatically updated within the next week with new style numbers and sizing.
 
SALE!!!
Just in time for families to stock up on fresh products and sizing, we are launching a 40% sale on all uniforms – the sale will take place April 14 through April 27. This link is to marketing assets you may use to share across your platforms. I’ve also included the PDF flyer for the sale with this email.
