Today's Reading
Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time


Vanity of vanities, says Qoheleth,
vanity of vanities! All things are vanity!

Here is one who has labored with wisdom and knowledge and skill,
and yet to another who has not labored over it,
he must leave property.
This also is vanity and a great misfortune.
For what profit comes to man from all the toil and anxiety of heart
with which he has labored under the sun?
All his days sorrow and grief are his occupation;
even at night his mind is not at rest.
This also is vanity.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!



Student Parking Information - Parking Tags available Aug 15th!
Starting this school year, in order to help provide a safe and secure environment for all of our students and their vehicles, there will be some changes in the structure of student parking on campus.

Any student who drives a vehicle to school and parks the vehicle in the student parking lot MUST secure a vehicle registration form BEFORE driving the vehicle to school.  Registration forms for current drivers may be picked up in the main office before school starts or from the Assistant Principal, Mr. Gutilla, after school starts.  The grace period for current drivers to pick-up and turn-in a completed registration form will end on Monday, August 29th.  Those students who secure drivers licenses during the school year can pick up the registration forms directly from    Mr. Gutilla.

Upon receipt of the completed registration form the student will receive a numbered Savio student parking tag that must be hung from the rear view mirror of the vehicle.  The cost of student-parking tag is $10.00 and will be issued to the student upon receipt of the completed registration form.  Parking tags will be available starting on Monday, August 15th.  All student vehicles must display the parking tag while parked in the student parking lot.

Savio Parent Association (SPA) News
 
 
Our school year is getting ready to begin and we are always in need of Volunteers.  Contact SPA Chair, Julie Zimmerman at zimardle@aol.com and she can help find the perfect spot for you: a once in a while volunteer, a "done in a day" project, class rep helper, or SPA committee member.  Our school is growing and so is the need for more parent involvement; several special Savio traditions are solely parent/volunteer-run.  Please email Julie Zimmerman at zimardle@aol.com.

If you would like to help with your child's specific class events (whether in person or in kind), please email Julie Zimmerman at zimardle@aol.com.   She will put you in touch with your class rep.   

Back to school events start right away - the week of August 8th - so please let us know if you'd like to help.
