Last Thursday, March 3rd, was Mrs. Libera's last day at Blessed Sacrament School. After 20 years of service, Mrs. Patricia Libera has decided to retire and we will miss her!

Originally from Auburn, NY, Mrs. Pat Libera started to work for Blessed Sacrament school back in 2003. She is celebrating her [20th] year with us! Mrs. Libera first started as a parent of BSS and then as a Kindergarten assistant and later made her way to become our trusted and reliable Office Administrator. When asked what she does, she answers, "Anything and Everything the teachers and Mrs. Gomez need." She also shares that what she loves most about working for Blessed Sacrament School are the students, faculty, and staff, "This is the best place to work, ever!"

Mrs. Libera attended Auburn Community College and attained an Associate's in Early Childhood Education. She later moved to Durham, NC in 1980 and attended Durham Tech where she took courses in Administration for Day Care. A fun fact about Mrs. Libera is that she has not eaten red meat since 1974!

Mrs. Libera is married to Joe Libera and they have 4 children: Domnnic, Hannah, (twins), Jacob, and Theresa. They are all AlumnKnights! When she is not working, Mrs. Libera enjoys gardening and houseplants, mending & sewing, completing puzzles, cooking, swimming, spending time with family & friends and just "chillaxing."

Here is a message from Mrs. Gomez, "It is with mixed feelings that we announce the retirement of our beloved and much appreciated, Mrs. Libera. Her last working day [was] Thursday, March 2. She has been an integral part of Blessed Sacrament School for the last 20 years. We thank her for her service as the Kindergarten assistant, as well as the Kindergarten Religion teacher. For the last twelve years, she has been the friendly face of our office. We thank her for her hard work and commitment to our school. As she closes this chapter in her life, we wish her the best as she embarks on her next journey in her life."

This morning, Friday, March 3rd, we celebrated mass with Fr. Tim. He talked to our students about how during this Lent season, we must forgive our friends and family and not seek revenge. Mrs. Bost's second-grade students led us in prayer and singing. A special thanks to Mr. James Lachance for playing the piano and our Altar Boys, Irvin (8) and Christopher (8).

Congratulations to the following students for getting a Knight Honor Cross from Mrs. Gomez last Tuesday, January 17th! These students have demonstrated the best values Blessed Sacrament School embodies - Andrew Dutton (Seventh), Matthew Gould (Sixth), Ava Morrison (Seventh), Bryan Perez Arroyo (Seventh), Sebastian Vargas-Aleem (Eighth), Jayden Barrot (Seventh), Yahir Perez Garcia (Seventh), Angel Martinez-Mendez (Seventh), Natalia Guardado Leon (Seventh), Katherine Colorado Garcia (Kindergarten) & Andrea Flores (Kindergarten) 💙💛

Dear Parents,

Please, do not drop off your child in the parking lot in the morning. You are blocking the side café door and teachers cannot get in the building--this is school policy. Do not forget for dismissal, please stay in the pick-up line and not park to pick up your child.

Thank you for your understanding.

Mrs. Gomez

Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) around the world. Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant — the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159. Pi Day is an annual opportunity for math enthusiasts to recite the infinite digits of Pi, talk to their friends about math, and eat pie.

The Knights have been working hard studying the first 300 digits of Pi (WOW) and on Friday, March 10, students in grades 3 through 8, will demonstrate how all their hard work has paid off by participating in Blessed Sacrament School’s third-annual Pi Bee!

Golf Tournament & Auction! 🏌⛳

BSS is bringing back its largest fundraiser for the year and making it even bigger by adding the first-ever Golf Tournament. We need help from all of our students and families to really make this a success.

We're bringing back the class-themed baskets for elementary school and asking the middle school to help with beverage donations for the golf event.

Little Knights thru 4th grade please support in the building of a themed basket to be auctioned off. A box will be provided for each classroom to collect items for their class. So students can bring the items to class for their theme. Planning members will collect the items and make the baskets for the auction. If you have new items around the house you would like to donate for another class basket, you may donate these items as well. The bigger the basket the better it will do at the Auction!

Below is the list of grades and your themes. To help support donation items we have created a SignUp Genius for each theme. Any item fitting the theme is welcome, it doesn't have to be on the list. Monetary donations for items are great as well.

Elementary Theme Signup Links

BSS is having its first-ever fundraising golf tournament. One of the ways we are raising money that day is with the sale of beverages from the beverage golf cart. If you are not familiar with golf, during a round of golf there is a special golf cart that will drive hole to hole selling beverages to those who are playing. We have an agreement with the golf course to be able to use the cart. Therefore 100% of the product sold off that cart would go toward the Athletic Booster Club. We need your help to stock the cart! Sports drinks, bottled water, soda, etc. The only requirement is NO GLASS containers or bottles. It must be canned or plastic.

A SignUp Genius has been created to help ensure a variety of options for golfers. All donations can be turned into the office.

ALL Students and Families 🏌⛳

A big portion of our fundraising success for the golf outing will be in the sale of raffle tickets. After the round of golf is over, we will be raffling off as many items as we can collect in donations.

How can you help? Donation of items! The only criterion is that it must be new / never used items. They can be items with company logos or without. Here is an example of some items to consider:

If you work for a company that has giveaway items, those work great too! Free marketing for them and supports our fundraiser. It really can be any new item for a prize. So check your closet and drawers to see if you have anything new that will not be used. If you have any questions about any items please email Holly Groh at holly.r.groh@gmail.com. Donations can be made to the office. Thank you for your support in making this event a success!

Your child's report card was sent home last Friday, February 24 in their yellow communicator. Please review, sign, and return by Wednesday, March 1.

For elementary students, please sign and return the report card envelope. You may keep the report card itself.

For middle school students, please sign and return the report card. Please indicate if you would like a copy of the report card and it will be sent on Friday, March 4.

Thank you. Mrs. Gomez

Mrs. Spradlin's Seventh Grade social studies students wrapped up their unit on Africa with a special treat. Last Thursday, March 2nd, Mrs. Gardiner made an authentic African Chicken soup and Fufu for the class to try! She explained how Fufu, a West African staple, was traditionally made. Fufu is traditionally eaten with the fingers, and a small ball of it can be dipped into an accompanying soup or sauce. The students really enjoyed it. Thank you Mrs. Gardiner for sharing it with our students!

Last Tuesday, February 28, our seventh & eighth-grade students visited the Charlotte Hawkins Brown Museum and thoroughly enjoyed their visit!

"Founded in 1902 by Dr. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, Palmer Memorial Institute transformed the lives of more than 2,000 African American students. Today, the campus provides the setting where visitors can explore this unique environment where boys and girls lived and learned during the greater part of the 20th century. The museum links Dr. Brown and Palmer Memorial Institute to the larger themes of African American history, women's history, social history, and education, emphasizing the contributions African Americans made in North Carolina."

Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school.

Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from Monday, March 20th- Friday, March 24th in Multi-purpose Room at school.

Remember that you can use an eWallet again this year—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.

If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.

Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:

Our 8th grade students had the honor of hosting a foreign exchange student from Panama over the last 5 weeks. Carlos (nickname Charlie) recently finished 8th grade. He told his parents he wanted to experience a Catholic School in the United States over his summer break. They have family in the area and made arrangements for him to attend BSS!

From day one, he jumped right and joined all the fun! He was here to experience Catholic Schools Week, basketball season, a Valentine’s Dance, a pep rally, field trips, classmates birthday celebrations, a Mardi Gras parade, Ash Wednesday, and so much more! He even celebrated his birthday with us!

We are so thankful for the time we had with Charlie! Please send him prayers for safe travels home tomorrow and as he begins high school next week! 💛🙏🏻💙

Hi! Our Shoe Fundraiser check arrived last Tuesday, February 28th. We donated a total of 784 pounds of shoes! They gave us .40 per pound. We received a check in the amount of $313.60. This will go to the Athletic Booster Club.

Are you a student between the ages of 12 and 17 who are looking for a wonderful adventure this summer? Do you like older people and enjoy helping with activities, music crafts, games or just talking with an “adopted grandparent”?

If so, you might be interested in the YESS! (Youth Engaged Serving Seniors) Twin Lakes Community Summer Program. This program helps you learn more about older adults and gives you the opportunity to spend two days each week during the summer volunteering at Twin Lakes. The YESS! Twin Lake Community Summer Service Program runs from June 20th to August 10th. If you are interested in volunteering, see Mrs. Gomez (mgomez@bssknights.org) for an application! The application is due by 4:30 pm on Wednesday, April 5th.
