Get spooked and help out
Dear Families,
Spooks and Spoofs is right around the corner, not to be confused with Trunk or Treat, a mistake I made last year, when not only did I not understand the difference between the two, but I openly wondered why all of our Halloween events had to so strongly sing with alliteration. But I digress.
For those new to the St. Mary’s community, Spooks and Spoofs is an event for everyone. During the day there is a pumpkin decorating contest, and the creativity and artistic talent displayed by our students . . . and perhaps some parents . . . is at another level. In the evening there are games for the whole family, music, a bounce house, and plenty of food downstairs. Of course, be prepared for some spooky surprises along the way.
Like many of our Home and School functions, volunteers are needed to make this event a success. If you are able, please consider donating some of your time for this. Indeed, volunteers are the backbone of Spooks, the annual Auction for Education, Grandparents Day, and so much more. We encourage and count on each family to play a part and help with such activities at some point during the school year. Celebrations like these are what help to make St. Mary’s such a vibrant place, not just for our students, but for their entire families. We appreciate your help and we hope to see you next Friday!
God Bless,
Siggy Spelter
Principal
