The Eagle Express
CSSE's Weekly Newsletter - August 7, 2020
Welcome to all our new families!
The Eagle Express is a newsletter that goes out weekly during the school year. We share updates, prayer requests, and school, parish and community news. It is available by the end of each week on the school homepage, and will be emailed to subscribers. Join our mailing list here so you don't miss any important news!
If you have school-related announcements or student/staff accolade to share, you may submit items for publication via email to Kim Hattaway - eagleexpress@steugeneschool.org.
Deadline is 5pm TUESDAY of the week to be published.
The Eagle Express is reviewed and approved by the Principal prior to going to print.
Please Pray For...
Pray for all those who have been affected by Covid-19, whether by sickness, loss of job, isolation, or loneliness, etc. May all find strength, comfort and healing in this difficult time. | Pray for our staff who have been putting in many extra hours to prepare for the upcoming school year. Please pray for students and their families. May God grant us all patience and wisdom as we navigate a very different school year. Help us put our faith first and give grace to all.
If you would like to include something in the Prayer Requests section, please contact Kim Hattaway at eagleexpress@steugeneschool.org.

PTO News & Sign Ups
Didn't get your order in? No worries! There are extras of some shirts and items. First come, first served.
There will also be PTO and classroom parent sign up opportunities.
Don't let all of your student's personal items end up in the lost and found this year! Order super cute, easy-to-use labels through the PTO Mabel's Labels Fundraiser! Shop using this link, and a portion of proceeds will come back to the school!
NEW Outdoor Classroom!
Our Early Childhood program is working to create an outdoor classroom! The church has generously agreed to let us use the fenced backyard of the CCO house just behind the school. We will be able to offer our youngest students another outdoor area to explore that will be filled with invitations to learn through play!
EC teachers have already been hard at work gathering materials and cleaning up the area, but we could use your help to make it even better! We are looking for deliveries of wood chips and pea gravel (by the truckload), weed barrier, sand, outdoor storage pieces, kid-size picnic table(s), tractor tires, garden edging, and tree stumps. If you would like to donate or help purchase any of these items, please contact Kim Hattaway. Gift cards to Lowes, Home Depot and Walmart would also be great! We will plan a group workday for later in the fall to work on creating things like a sensory path, play spaces and more!
