May 2007
Dear Students and Parents, During May we celebrate the rebirth of nature and look toward our Heavenly Mother as a guide to lead us closer to Jesus. During this month we honor all mothers through prayer as a sign of our love. We especially honor Our Blessed Mother with a May Procession from school to the Church. Our May devotions this year will be on We will all meet in the school yard to process over to church for Mass and May Crowning. Everyone is invited to join us for this devotion. A paper will be coming home to allow for the students let us know that they will be part of the May Crowning. _____________________________ Help Needed Our lunch time recess is in need of more volunteer Mothers and Fathers or Grandparents. If you have free time on any day and can come to help, please do so. You do not have to be scheduled to come and help. The students look forward to seeing their parents or grandparents here at school to help out and your presence is of great benefit to the school. _________________________________ Open House & Basket Auction Bonanza Home & School is sponsoring our First Annual Open House and Basket Bonanza this Friday, May 11 from 6:00 to 10:00 at the school. All are invited to come and see the students' work and projects as well as pictures of past events. Our Basket Bonanza will be held in the gym and all are invited to come down and take some chances on the great assortment of Baskets. This is a family event and food will be available to purchase. We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday evening! _______________________________ At this time all tuition should be paid. Please make sure this is taken care of as the end of the year is fast approaching and students will not be able to take part in the end of the year tests and activities. If you haven't completed all payments by Friday, May 5, you will be receiving a letter from Father James the week of May 8 and at that time only cash will be accepted. _______________________________
Our Bake Sale this month is sponsored by the Kindergarten. Parents and students of that grade are asked to bake cupcakes, brownies, etc. ( no candy ) for their day. Remember we have 200 students who will want to buy snacks that day. Remember the proceeds will benefit the classroom sponsoring it as well as our school library. We also need the mothers on that morning to help set up, sell, and clean up. This month the Kindergarten will have their Bake Sale Tuesday, May 15, 2007. We've got school spirit! Yes we do!

St. Ann School Cookbook End of May or beginning of June!! _________________________________ Our Walk-a-thon was a fun day for everyone. Now it is time to collect your pledges and send the money into school. All money is due by Wednesday, May 16 to be eligible for the prizes. Each student has a shoe on the wall in school with their name and stickers. A walk with Jesus sticker means we had a permission slip for them.

So everyone look for your shoe and if you have all 3 stickers. A big thanks to all who helped last Wednesday. _______________________________ Spirit Week Our Spirit Week will be May 14 to 18.
