St. Jude School

Going Above and Beyond In Learning and Serving

A Note From Mrs. Hibler:

We are gearing up for our busy season! We never want to wish time away, but Halloween marks the end of the first quarter, then conferences as we head toward Thanksgiving break, and before you know it Christmas will be here. Please stay on top of information being sent out through our weekly school newsletter and from your child's teacher.

We have another day off of school coming next Friday, October 24th, for the Diocesan Teacher In-Service "Ministerium Day," growing in their faith during Mass with Bishop Woost and a presentation; others who are not attending are part of our Safety Committee and will be focusing on continued plans, procedures, and documentation.

As required by the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), we are notifying parents, teachers, and employees of the availability of the St. Jude School asbestos management plan.

Lost and Found

The lost and found table is overflowing with school books, sweatshirts, jackets, and water bottles. Please have your student check there if they are missing anything. Parents, items that are labeled will be delivered back to your student, but sadly, nothing is labeled; please take a moment to label items. Unclaimed items will be cleared on October 29.

Grandfriends Day is tomorrow, October 17

For students in BG, K, 1, & 2 ONLY

Grandfriends are to meet over at the church starting at 8:15am, Mass starts promptly at 8:30am.

Grandfriends meet students:

• grades BG, K, 1 at the altar

Halloween Celebration

Friday, October 31

Students may dress in costumes, but may not have weapons or scary masks. Students may wear non-scary masks for the parade, but are not permitted to wear masks during the school day. Costumes should be able to be worn all day; inflatables are permitted, but please send a change of clothes in case they become too much.

You may choose to send in candy or a treat to be passed out, as student will receive a bag to bring home any goodies, but it must follow these guidelines:

• Store bought
• Individually packaged by the manufacturer
• No cupcakes/cookies, etc. that are unwrapped or homemade
• Anything that does not follow the guidelines will be sent back with that student.

All grades will have a party or fun break, please see your newsletters from the homeroom teachers for class specific information.
