Dear Parent,
   

       Sunday, March 29th, is Palm Sunday. This is the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem 

and it is the beginning of Holy Week, the most important week in our Catholic Faith.

 Your children know the story of Palm Sunday, so please follow up on this lesson by

 taking them to Church.

We will be having an Open House and Art Exhibition on Palm Sunday, 

9:00 a.m to 2:00 p.m. Your child's wonderful work will be displayed in the 

Kindergarten classroom and there will also be art work in the hallway. 

Please come visit our room and bring friends along to show off your child's work.

All teachers will be present to answer any of your questions. 

This is also an opportunity to meet your child's first grade teacher.

There will be food such as hot dogs and other goodies for sale.

 This is a family and faith community event. 

Students who attend the Open House in uniform have free dress Monday, March 30th.

One other student opportunity is extra recess on Wednesday, April 1st, for students who bring a baked item to the Palm Sunday bake sale. 

There is no free dress April 1st because the entire school will be attending Mass.

On Tuesday, March 31st, there is also a free dress for students who bring in at least four nonperishable items for the needy.

See you all on Palm Sunday!!

Thank you for your support,

Manel McMillan
