From the Office

Are You Our 12th MOM or DAD?

We all know the Seahawks made it to the Super Bowl

this year because of the overwhelming support of the 12th Man.

Now we need all of our 12th MOM and DAD supporters to lift our auction team to a touchdown next weekend!

 

R   Register for the auction

R   Sign up for auction parties

o   Cheer the Seahawks on to victory this Sunday!

o   Have a great time at the auction on February 8th!

 

This is the most important fundraiser of the year and the most fun you'll ever have supporting our school. We need everyone in attendance and ready to bid! - Mr. Burroughs

 

Cyber Safety and Social Media Risks  - What Every Family Needs to Know 

Please join us TONIGHT for an Informational Parent Workshop from 7-9pm in the Moore Theater.

Come early: A Parents' Club-Hosted Wine and Cheese Reception begins at 6:pm and includes an opportunity to sign up for Auction Parties and purchase Raffle Tickets.

  

Called To Protect Class

If you have not yet attended a Called to Protect Class, you have the opportunity of completing it here at Sacred Heart in the Moore Theater on Wednesday, February 5th, at 6:30 PM. All school and parish volunteers who work with children or vulnerable adults are required to complete a Called to Protect class as part of the Safe Environment Program. Register for free here. Please contact Amy Davis with any questions.

 

Volunteer Help Needed on the Playground and Lunchroom

We are looking for volunteers to take on a Thursday Lunch Recess Duty from 12:15-1pm, as well as people to help in the lunchroom on Wednesdays and Thursdays and from 11:50am - 12:50pm.  If you are available to help with any of these jobs, please contact our Service Board Chair,

Colleen O'Donnell, at colleenod@yahoo.com

 

Accreditation Early Dismissal

The accreditation visiting committee will be here February 12th through 14th. After observing classes and activities at the school and meeting with small groups and individuals, they will write a report of their findings and make a recommendation for the term of our accreditation. They will read that report to our staff on Friday afternoon. In order to accommodate this on a Friday afternoon (which is both Valentine's Day and the Friday of President's Day Weekend), we will be dismissing school at 12pm for grades kindergarten through eighth. Pre-kindergarten will operate on its regular schedule. This early dismissal will allow our staff and the visiting team to meet and celebrate and still head home at a reasonable time. I apologize for the late word about this change. The chair of our visiting committee told me today that she has read through our self-study and is very happy with what she has seen and felt comfortable moving up our time frame bit because of that. 

- Mr. Burroughs

 

Lunch Service Help Needed

No Junk Inc. is looking for a Sacred Heart parent who is interested in helping in the kitchen from 10am until 1pm Monday through Friday.  You will be compensated for two hours and we will feed your child/children at no charge in exchange. Duties will include prepping fruit for service, baking pizza, hot pockets and quesadillas. You would assist our lead employee in the set-up of lunch service and the clean-up. We really need to find help as soon as possible. You will need a valid King County Food Handlers Permit. If you are interested, please call Jeff at 206-910-2274.
