promProm 

Prom is April 21, only three weeks away.  The seniors have been meeting since November to help make this their very special night.  Now it is our turn as parents to put the finishing touches on their Carnival's "Big Top". 
What is needed are Freshman and Sophomore parents to chaperone and door prizes.  Door prizes will be given out randomly during the after party.  We are looking for gift cards of all types and denominations.  Anything that would be helpful or fun in a dorm room, items to help with studying, games like, corn hole, bocce ball, hillbilly golf, cards.

Please drop off your donations at the front desk by Friday, April 13.  If you would like to be a chaperone please contact Della Hall dellahall@yahoo.com or Sherry Milnamow smilnamow@mac.com

Thank you for helping to make this a night to remember.

swServe with Love  

Just a reminder that your student has until May 7, to enter 18 Parish/Church hours and 12 Guerin Catholic/Community hours into Campus Ministry's database. Failure to accomplish this will result in your student being pulled from all extra-curricular activities and sports teams until they have finished the requirements. 

In addition, Seniors who have not finished 30 hours for each year they have been a student at Guerin Catholic will not be eligible to graduate until they have met that requirement. For more information, you can see page 22 of the student handbook. Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter! 

As a reminder, service opportunities for Guerin Catholic students can be found at http://fs2.guerincatholic.org/groups/campusministry/
