Dear St. Anne Catholic School Families,


Our STREAM Day was a tremendous success! We extend our heartfelt gratitude to

Mrs. Dixon, Mrs. Gredvig, and everyone who contributed to making this day so special. A special thank you to Texas Agriculture, Mrs. Ross and her drama students, Coach Carpio, and our dedicated faculty and staff for their thoughtful planning and hard work in creating a memorable experience for our students.


Tomorrow, we celebrate 40 years of forming disciples of Christ at our 40th Anniversary Gala! We are anticipating a wonderful evening of fellowship and celebration. We are especially grateful to Mrs. Minch, our gala chairs Mrs. Vecera and Mrs. Bergmann, our dedicated gala committee, and our generous sponsors and donors for their unwavering support. Please keep the success of our gala in your prayers, as it is our largest fundraising event of the year. We hope to see many of you there! If you are unable to attend, you can still participate in the silent auction by clicking here.


Looking ahead to next week, Monday is a holiday, we will have our Talent Show on Thursday and Teacher of the Day on Friday. Wishing you all a restful and joyful long weekend!


Sincerely in Christ,


Kendall Shamas, Ed.D. Principal
