Dear Notre Dame Families:  

 

IMPORTANT REMINDER  that Thursday, December 15th is the last day to hand in your Scrip order for the staff.  Click here to get the teacher Scrip certicates form.  This is a great way to show your appreciation for our HARD working staff!!! Please consider giving generously as our teachers generously give of their gifts.  Traditionally, scrip has been given to teachers in place of Christmas gifts.  You can give as little as $1 to as much as you want.  This has been greatly appreciated by teachers and staff!!   

   

 Please check out the GRACE System "Ladder of Success" newsletter:

 http://www.gracesystem.org/newsletters/ This newsletter is put out by James Cullen, supportive consultant for Grace.  Mr. Cullen's  role  at Notre Dame is to help Notre Dame's supportive consultant, Jean Healy, develop service plans for students at Notre Dame.

 

Get in the Christmas spirit by attending the Christmas concert and art exhibit on December 15th.  There will be an afternoon show beginning at 1:00 and an evening show beginning at 6:30.   Arrive early to view the art exhibit put on by middle school students and Mrs. Dunkel.  A big thank you goes out to Mrs. Dunkel for donating her time and energy to put on the art exhibit. Click here to see the Christmas concert flyer:  Notre Dame of De Pere Christmas Concert  Christmas Concert Alert:  If you arrive to the concert before 6:00, please keep your child(ren) with you in the gym.

 

 It's that time of year to enjoy good food and friends!  Student Council will be holding a bake sale on Thursday, December 15 during the Elementary School afternoon and evening Christmas concert.  All proceeds will go to purchasing wireless routers for the six projectors that the student council has just purchased for the Middle School.  If you would like to donate any baked goods, please drop them off at school.  Any questions e-mail Mrs. Pagel at ppagel@gracesystem.org.

 

Please check out the December 8th issue of the De Pere Journal to find "What Christmas Means to Me" by Mr. Six's Fourth Graders.

More art work by the Fourth Graders will appear in the December 15th issue of the De Pere Journal. Click here to view the view Mr. Six's fourth grade art.

 

Market day orders are going home.  If you would like to order, click here: http://www.marketday.com/

 

I hope that your preparation for Christmas is going smoothly.  It's hard to believe that next week is the week of Christmas. 

 

 

 In Spirit,

 

 Jeff

Christmas Gift Form

  

It's that time of year again!   If you are looking for a gift for those individuals that work for Notre Dame School, this could be what you're looking for!

 

Here is a way to contribute to a gift certificate for any of the individuals that work for Notre Dame School.

Families may choose the people they would like to gift and contribute to a $crip Gift Certificate for them. (The amounts you choose may vary per person.) The $crip profits will go back to the school, thus helping with our fundraising efforts. Contributions for each person will be pooled together and given to them in a lump certificate amount. Each recipient will be able to redeem their certificate for whatever $crip they would like. Every certificate will list the names of the families who have contributed to that individual's gift certificate.

 

This is not mandatory. Families who want to participate may contribute any amount they wish. Some families may prefer to purchase $crip or gifts on their own. We encourage you to do whichever you are comfortable with.

 

To participate, fill out this form with your family name and indicate the dollar amount you wish to contribute for each individual. WHOLE DOLLARS ONLY PLEASE. Please make checks payable to Notre Dame $crip or send cash for the total amount. Return this form and one payment to school no later than December 15th in an envelope addressed "Christmas Gift Certificates". If you have any questions, please call Jill Hummel at 983-1645.

 

Thank you for supporting those who support our children and our community
