St. Petronille Catholic School

A Note from Mr. Schmidt

St. Petronille Families,

It is auction weekend! We are incredibly excited to celebrate with our school community tomorrow night at the Abbington!

Our auction is our most important school fundraiser and we are again dedicating our Paddle Raise to providing additional supplemental income for our teachers. Our teachers make huge sacrifices for our kids, and it is no secret that finances are among them. Teachers across our diocese sacrifice a huge amount of money every year to teach in Catholic schools, and we have embraced the task of bridging the gap the very best we can. We took wonderful strides forward last year with a huge Paddle Raise and the establishment of the Daniel and Joleen Frick Teachers Endowment Fund, and we hope this year to establish greater sustainability for our supplementation programs. Please join us in the effort to reward, retain, and recruit great teachers at St. Petronille in every classroom!

A huge amount of work went into planning this event and I want to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to everyone who contributed by donating, decorating, securing gifts, organizing, or any of 1000 other tasks! Special thanks to our Director of Advancement, Debbie Quirk, and our Auction Chairs Michelle Jadin, Stacey Lewis, and Shannon Schmidt!

I can't wait to see everyone tomorrow night for another wonderful occasion to get together and demonstrate our support for our school! Lights, Camera, Auction!

God bless,

Eric Schmidt
