SFSS Weekly Newsletter
Friday, March 22, 2024
We celebrated Holy Week as a school this past week. Students experienced Palm Sunday, the Last Supper, Eucharistic Adoration, and Stations of the Cross. I heard many of our students understanding the meaning of Lent and the final days before Jesus was resurrected.
In the coming days, take some time to chat with your child about some of the faith experiences they had this week. I hope they inspire you as they do us each and every day.
We have three days with the students this next week. Spring Break for students will begin Thursday, March 28 to Monday, April 8. We do not have school on Monday, April 8 due to the Total Solar Eclipse. Students will be coming home with a pair of viewing glasses and lots of information about the eclipse.
Our teachers have been excited and planning to educate our students on this once in a lifetime "out of this world" experience.
On behalf of the faculty and staff, we wish you a very special Holy Week, Happy Easter, safe and healthy spring break, and fun filled total solar eclipse day!

Upcoming Events and Activities

Memorial Day Parade Help
We are seeking a group of parents and their families to help plan what we will do for the Waterloo and Geneva Memorial Day parades.
If you love to decorate, celebrate our school, and have some good old-fashion fun, this is a role for you!
Planning consists of deciding if we want to make a float to what do we hand out to the many people attending. The goal is to advertise our school and show off our school spirit!
If interested, please contact Paula Caito-Capozzi.
Great opportunity for 4th graders and their families.
