in order to be carried in a woman’s arms."

Flames Parent Initiative
HSCS started a parent volunteer safety program called The Flames Parent Initiative earlier this year. THE FPI!
This program is designed to be an extra set of eyes and ears around the campus when our children are at Mass and recess. Our mission is to give teachers, staff, children, and parents extra peace of mind with our presence.
We are close to having full coverage which means that everyone can have a designated shift for each month (for example, 2nd Wednesday of the month, every month) .
Please prayerfully consider helping our community. Thanks in advance for your help!! For more information please email Chris Buckley at boti@earthlink.net.

Career Day
We are beginning to prepare for our upcoming Career Day on February 2, 2023 during Catholic Schools Week. On this day, our Holy Spirit Family will come together to "Celebrate Our Future" by taking time to listen to speakers from various career fields. It is a great time for our students to get excited about their future and the endless opportunities that awaits them.
This exciting event cannot be successful without you, so thank you for your YES! Your volunteer time is appreciated and this is a great opportunity to check off some of your required Parents As Partners hours.
To volunteer your time, please complete the following Google Form by Friday, January 20, 2023.
In addition to listening to our amazing Career Day speakers, students may wear their favorite College or University t-shirts or sweatshirts.

Our Gala is always fun and memorable thanks to the participation from our families. Gala is our biggest fundraiser of the year and we need your help to make it successful. Click the buttons below to donate/sponsor accordingly.
Here are some ways you can help:
