Dear Parents and Guardians:
Deanery Mass: All students K-6th grade will be attending a special mass with Bishop Hying on Tuesday, October 25. A field trip form was sent home. Please remember to fill it out and send it back. Students should be wearing St. Victor polo, lunch will be provided that day.
Picture Retake Day: Your child’s pictures are in today's Wednesday folder. If you would like to have your child’s school pictures retaken, it will be on Wednesday, November 2. You need to return your child’s original picture packet back to school if you intend to have retakes. If your child was absent on the original day, they will get their picture taken on retake day (even if you did not order them), so their picture can appear in the classroom composites. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the office.
Lions Club Eye Exam: Yesterday the Monroe Lions Club did their annual eye exam on all of our students. In the folder today are the results. Your child will have a Referral Form ONLY if they did not pass the exam and need to see an eye doctor. If you have any questions please contact the office.
Helping Hand and Hearts: Located in the hallway outside of the 4K classroom are some hands and hearts that our teachers have filled out with some items that they could use to help make their teaching and classroom better. If grandparents (or parents) are interested in helping out, grab one off the bulletin board and stop and see Jenni in the office. As always, thanks for your generosity towards our teachers and school!
Halloween 2022: We again will celebrate Halloween on Monday, Oct. 31. If parents would like to join us for the Table and Treat (info was in last week’s & today’s envelope). We will begin with a short Halloween parade at 2:15 in the gym, followed by the Table and Treat. If students would like to wear their costumes all day, please make sure they are able to independently manage the bathroom, if not please send their costumes for them to change into. Whatever is most convenient for your family. Please make sure the costumes fit our dress code.
A reminder no violent or overly scary costumes, overly tight (modesty please) and no weapons.
All Saints’ Day: We will celebrate the holy day of All Saints on Tuesday, Nov. 1. Our 4th grade Saints’ Fair projects will be on display after mass. Please wear your blue polo that day.

Christian Parenting in a Technology Driven World: On Thursday, November 10 we are excited to bring to St. Clare of Assisi Parish/St. Victor School Justin Bangert a well known Christian counselor and speaker.

The talk will begin at 6:30 pm in the new lower level at church. Child care is provided for 6 months to 5th grade. Please plan on attending, this is a great opportunity for all of us!
