Letter from Admissions Director Beth Fox:
As we approach our second Open House for prospective students and families on December 7 from 9:00a.m.-11:00 a.m., I am asking for your help in spreading the word about the event to families that you believe could benefit from a Presentation School education. We have seen a 12+% increase in enrollment in the past year when the national average enrollment at Catholic Schools has been dropping.
The ability of our families to "network" is appreciated, and with this stronger enrollment comes lower tuition increases for all families. With your help, we can reach out to many in the Sonoma community to help spread the word of our success and invite interested families to our Open House.
Your help in building the Presentation community, through these recruitment efforts, strengthens our school's growing legacy! I appreciate your assistance! |

Community News:
J Love Productions and the Nicholson Ranch Players present A LAURA INGALLS CHRISTMAS at the Nicholson Ranch, 4200 Napa Road in Sonoma, Dec. 1, 2, 3 at 7pm and December 4 at 3pm. Tickets are available at Tiddle E. Winks in Sonoma, and in the tasting room at Nicholson Ranch.
This touching tale, written by Laura Brooks, deals with the two years of the Ingalls saga that writer Laura Ingalls Wilder chose to leave out of her original Little House on the Prairie series. Told with period songs, humor and depth, A Laura Ingalls Wilder Christmas tells a story of healing that celebrates the importance of enduring family bonds. The cast includes Ann Peterson, Jerry Bruno, and Luba Markoff. The children are played by Adrienne Valavanis, Maia Reilly, Kamryn Conway, Presentation 5th grader Nell Sheridan, Megan Dewees, and Oliver French.
This production comes to the Sonoma stage with a special twist. The director, popular local actress Kathryn Del Chiaro, is the great grand daughter of the youngest of the Ingalls family, Carrie.
Tickets are $16.00 for adults, $12.00 for those under 18 or over 65.
