Thank You
Thank you to the Liturgical Choir for singing at Mass on Sunday. They were FANTASTIC!

Good morning!
Our K-8 students have all been sorted into their houses. Several students, parents, and staff have asked where to purchase extra t-shirts or other house items. So, due to popular demand, we are having our first-ever House Swag Sale! Flyers/order forms are coming home today. All orders are due by Monday, September 9th by 10 am. Cash or check only. Please make the check out to Little Flower Catholic School. A digital copy of the flyer and order form is attached. All items can be purchased for any house not just the house shown on the flyer. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (cechegaray@littleflowerparish.org).

First Eucharist and Reconciliation
Sacramental preparation for First Eucharist and Reconciliation will begin in the fall for children entering 2nd grade. If you have a child that attends Little Flower school, enrollment forms have been sent home and are due back by Wednesday, August 28.
If you have a child in 3rd grade or above who has not made their First Eucharist, please contact Lisa at 317-357-8352, ext 105 or lgibbons@littleflowerparish.org as soon as possible.
A requirement for First Eucharist is to be a baptized Catholic and a member of our parish. If your son or daughter has not been baptized in the Catholic Faith, please contact the parish center for more information.
Please see attached flyer about the OCIA program for adults who wish to join the Catholic church or just learn more about the faith.

Absences
Please call the school office in the morning before 8:30 if your child will be absent from school. If your child is ill, please wait until they are fever free, without medicine, for 24 hours, before returning to school.
Per the Archdiocese, any student who arrives at school after 8:30 AM will be marked as half-day absent.
Students are considered chronically absent when they miss 10% of a school year.
Poor school attendance means children miss out on these experiences and opportunities, which in turn impacts negatively on their achievement, wellbeing and wider development. This is why it's so important that children are in the classroom as many days as possible.

The Little Way
Each month we discuss the Little Way. We take time to discuss one trait of the Little Way and how we can apply it to our lives at LF and beyond. This month we will be discussing
WELCOME EVERYONE. We will read "The Day You Begin" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rLlyFs8eIM
and we will discuss how we all have our story to tell and we are all better and stronger when we listen and respond to the stories and needs of others.
