3rd grade scholars put their nature studies knowledge to the test playing the Food Chain Game. The crickets eat the popcorn, the anoles chase the crickets, and finally the owl gets them all!

Gardening Group

Do you love working in the garden?

Please email Mr. Follaco if you'd be interested in joining the gardening group. We are hoping to find a few volunteers to commit a little time once a month while the gardens are in bloom. Ideally we will have a big work day in the fall and spring followed by weekly, rotating maintenance. If we get enough people we can consider a Marian Grotto near the 3rd grade space!

CB Golf Swing

Calling all golfers!

Please reach out to Mr. Follaco if you are willing to work with Chesterton Academy of Rochester to help get this year's golf tournament up off the ground. We need two people to join the committee. Some of the tasks that you may or may not have to participate in would include:

• Procure sponsors and items for raffle
• Help set up on Sunday, September 8th

It's always a fun day and is an important fundraiser for both schools. Many hands make light work! Thank you for considering!

OptionC Forms Coming Soon

You may have noticed how easy it was to re-enroll for the next school year using our online application. We have also eliminated the need for the paper packet you were used to. This means you will be able to update your forms for next year by filling them out on OptionC. You will be notified when it is time to do so. Please ensure completion as soon as possible. Thank you!

Thank you St. Jerome's

As is tradition, our last day of school, June 12th, will start off with Mass at St. Jerome's. Fr. Leone and the staff have been so hospitable to us this year, and every year since we moved into this building. Please consider sending your child in with a donation that we can collect and send to St. Jerome's for always being there for us. We are blessed to be so close with such a Faith filled parish!
