Good Shepherd Students Serving the Community
This week a group of 8th graders joined parish volunteers and had an opportunity to cook, prepare, and serve food to those in need at St. Mary's Food Kitchen in Kansas City, Kansas. This was a meaningful experience for all. Another group is looking forward to attending next month!
Dance-a-thon is PTO’s largest school fundraiser and is a fun filled day for all students at Good Shepherd full of games, prizes, food, friends, music and dancing. And…it’s just around the corner on November 8th!
We need your help! Please consider being a sponsor of Dance-a-thon this year. We have been so fortunate in years past by the generosity of both monetary & in-kind donations that help to underwrite the costs of putting on the event so that 100% of student-raised pledges go towards meeting our Fund A Need goal. For more information on how you can help sponsor Dance-a-thon, please check out the Corporate Sponsor Form.
REMINDER! The Dance-a-thon t-shirt contest deadline is Tuesday, September 24th at 3:00pm. Please make sure if you student has a design idea for this year’s t-shirt that they turn in their design on Tuesday. Good Luck! Questions? Contact goodshepherddanceathon@gmail.com or 785-806-3467.

Disciples of Christ- Virtue of the Month
This year, Good Shepherd is continuing to implement Disciple of Christ, Education in Virtue. This program was developed by the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist, and is based on St. Thomas Aquinas’ teachings on the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit. We are focusing on introducing a new virtue each month. The virtue of the month for September is loyalty. Students have been enjoying learning each virtue and demonstrating what it means to be a Disciple of Christ.
