Thanksgiving Food Drive

The annual Thanksgiving Food drive, in partnership with St. Anastasia Catholic Church, is underway through Nov. 19. Many of you have already brought a lot of food in with first grade having the best showing so far! Thanks, also, to the Student Government for their efforts in promoting and collecting food from the classrooms.

 

Each grade level is responsible for bringing in specific food items (see list below or click here to print out the list), however any and all donations are appreciated! We will need volunteers to help pack up the food baskets for distribution. If you are interested in helping, please call Darlene at the Parish Office at 461-2233.

Parents -- scheduled class visits to the book fair are as follows:
  • K-5 classes will attend during their regular library class period.
  • Kindergarten and first grade - please put the student's money in envelopes or plastic baggies -- it really helps the volunteers. Thank you!

This year students will be able to purchase their cook-out items with cash or they may charge items to their St. Anastasia Payment Account (lunch account).If you choose to use the St. A's Payment Account, we ask that your child wears their name tag with bar code (makes the line go much faster!).

 

Students in grades 2-8 will purchase their lunch tickets in the auditorium before school on the day of the cook-out.We will have a cash line and a St. A's Payment line.

 

Students in Pre-K, Kindergarten and Grade 1 will each receive an order envelope indicating the items the students may purchase.This order envelope may be returned any day before the cook-out.Please make sure you indicate on the envelope if you will be paying cash, or would like the purchase charged to your St. A's Payment account.It is so much easier for the teachers on the day of the cook out if we receive the orders ahead of time. 

 

Parents, if you will be attending on Friday, there will be an area in the school auditorium at which you can purchase your tickets.
