The Mother/Son Dance this past Saturday evening was a huge success thanks to chair Megan Soyer. This is such a great opportunity for us to teach our boys how to be gentlemen and have a fun evening with their moms.
Thanks also to Stephanie Fenyes for her help with the planning and all the volunteers who helped with set up, pictures, check-in, refreshments and clean up. We have such a
wonderful community!
Thank you to Mindy Dyer for uploading these wonderful memories.

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR TO FILL OUR
HOLIDAY OUTREACH BOXES!
|
|
Please send all food items for your homeroom Holiday Outreach Boxes to school by Friday, November 9th.
|
|
Every year at Christmas time Advent trees are placed in the front hallway of our school and students fill the branches with items for families in need.
This year the items we donate will go to serve several programs at Catholic Charities Fort Worth, specifically the children and families involved with the Gabriel Project. The Gabriel Project is a ministry that reaches out to women currently going through and also after a crisis pregnancy.
|
|
The holiday season is an amazing time of year, one for joy & reflection, but without the support of family & friends and without the ability to meet basic necessities, it can also be a really tough time for many people throughout the Diocese and across the country. Through donation drives like ours, Catholic Charities is able to help more of those in need and provide a joyous holiday season that otherwise would not happen.
|
|
Items we are collecting include:
Tree #1
- Toys & stuffed animals
(Balls,Trucks,Dolls,Small Stuffed animals)
One piece, no assembly, no batteries)
Tree #2
- bottles, baby wash and baby hygiene kits
Tree #3
- sleepers ( size newborn to 4T)
Tree #4
- Socks and underwear
While you are out shopping over the Thanksgiving break please consider buying some of these items to donate to this great cause. We will also collect gently used coats, both children and adult sizes.
The Advent trees will be in the front foyer when you return from Thanksgiving break and we will collect items until Monday, December 10th.

Mrs. Mack, SAS Counselor, would like to thank the following SAS students who made
“Character Count” by displaying the character trait Respect at school this past month.
Character Trait Awards were handed out last Thursday after Mass.
Character Count is a new program that has been implemented this year at SAS. Teachers have been asked to submit one or two names to Mrs. Mack each month for students who possess the monthly character trait. Each month a different character trait will be focused on. The character trait for November is Trustworthiness. Keep up the good work students and continue to make character count.

The Spiritual Life Committee at Saint Andrew Catholic School offers two blessed statues to its families: A statue of Rosa Mystica and an Immaculate Heart of Mary Statue.
Each week (from Wednesday afternoon to the following Wednesday morning) two families will have the opportunity to take these statues home and use them as a source of inspiration, prayer and reflection. The tote bag containing the statue will also have suggested prayers. This special tradition will hopefully be one full of meaning and faith for each of you.
