Thank You for a Wonderful Catholic Schools Week!

Catholic Schools Week is January 31-February 5
As we wrap up the 2016 Catholic Schools Week, we want to thank each of the students, parents, grandparents, teachers, staff and administrators who helped us host a great week. From the kick-off mass to the Jog-a-Thon to events in between, this week has been joy-filled, service driven and blessed beyond measure. We will continue sharing love and faith with our Random Acts of Kindness throughout the month of February. We hope you'll join us!

St. Anastasia 90th Anniversary Playground Fundraising Underway
As you may know, St. Anastasia Catholic School is raising money to build a new 90th Anniversary Playground. Educators and parents agree that unstructured, outdoor playtime helps children grow physically, emotionally, socially and cognitively with benefits that last a lifetime. Our new playground will modernize and update the current playground to include durable and safe equipment on soft, long-lasting turf all under a shade structure.
Detailed information was sent home in last week. Please see the letter from St. Anastasia parent, Mrs. Amber Rankin, and consider helping us with this initiative. If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Hoeffner at khoeffner@saintanastasiaschool.org. If you did not receive a brochure and letter, please click here for details.
