Dear Crusader Families
We have currently collected 960 items for the Turkey Day canned food drive. The school goal is 1,450 items. Today, an additional incentive idea was brought forward to the school if the school reaches 1,500 items!
Below is the graphic to show what classes should bring in for the food drive. If you are not able to find the item that your child's class is supposed to bring in, any of the items listed below would be greatly appreciated. The canned food drive has been extended until Tuesday, November 26!
If you would like to help with the Turkey Day event, please sign up by emailing Adam Mathews. His contact information is listed in the Turkey Day graphic under Parish events.
As we begin working on our Marketing efforts, we love to hear from our families and include parent testimonials. If you can take time to complete the 1 question survey about "Why you love St. Francis de Sales School" it would mean a lot. To access the survey, please click on the link: https://forms.office.com/r/rD5GFD76rn
As always, thank you for all you do to support the school!
Gratefully,
Sarah Bitzer
