Week of November 27-December 1, 2017

Dear St. Jane Frances de Chantal School Community, 

Welcome back after a week-long break! I hope it was filled with rest and creating memorable moments with your loved ones.
Looking ahead, as we end the liturgical year, here is what is coming up:
· On behalf of the 8th graders and the Kindness Club, thank you for the Thanksgiving food donations. Together, we donated over $1000 worth of food items! This will go to serve around 1,500-1,600 people. Also, thanks to 5th grade - they brought in the most items and received the Gobble Gobble Award. As part of the award, 5th grade has free dress this Tuesday.
• Please be on the watch for how we can help children through December’s Toys for Tots.
