In honor of Saint Francis of Assisi, the patron Saint of Animals, our first service project of the 2024/2025 school year is a collection for the Bangor Humane Society. This project is an undertaking of students in fourth and fifth grade. Below is a wish list of items the humane society is most in need of at this time. While there are many things on the list, I know one of the easiest items they can use is old towels and blankets. So if you haven't cleaned your linen cupboard out in a while now is your opportunity. We ask all items to be sent in with your child on or before October 4 as that is the Feast day of Saint Francis. Thank you in advance for your support.

If you plan on volunteering at the school and have not completed the Protecting God's Children Class, you will need to do so. The first one being offered for the 2024/2025 school year is on September 10 from 6:00 - 8:00 pm in Saint Mary's Church Hall. No need to sign up ahead of time, just show up. Reach out to Mary Soucy at mary.soucy@portlanddiocese.org with any questions.

The first raise right order is due Monday, September 9, 2024. Raise right is a program that allows you to purchase gift cards for your use and in turn pays a percentage back to the school. Attached below is the flyer with all the details. Please consider using this service as a way to help raise funds for All Saints.

Mark your calendars! It may seem early to be talking about Advent, but it is time for our first Advent calendar fundraiser meeting. The meeting will be held on September 18th, at noon and will be virtual. Please consider contributing to this much anticipated fundraiser and get in some of your fundraising volunteer hours!!

The PTO is in need of officers!! Please reach out to Kate Carey if you have any interest or questions.

The next teacher birthday celebration is Thursday, October 3. Eighth grade parents are responsible for the month of October and can start signing up to help out. You should received more information in the near future from your room parent.
