Annual Appeal 

Contributions to date: $5118!  Many thanks to our donors! Included in that amount is $150 raised at Texas Roadhouse event, $649 raised at Hallowed Halls, $325 raised on Superhero Spirit Day and $125 raised at our Tropical Smoothie Event!  Can you help us? As a school we need to raise $14,000 - which will be matched by St. Mary’s. Your donation to our Annual Appeal assists where our budget cannot!  

Bishop Stang Entrance Exam

All Saints students will have the opportunity to take the Stang entrance exam in school (at ASCS) on Friday, December 6, no fee.  All eighth graders will be administered the exam on this date.  If you would prefer your student to take the exam at Bishop Stang on Saturday, Dec 7 or 14, the fee will also be waived. Please email Mrs. Massoud if your student prefers to take the exam at Bishop Stang. Students may take the exam only once.

Lego Workshops coming in the new year!  

Watch for more information to come about 6 week Lego Workshops to be offered beginning in January.  These will be scheduled on Thursdays and will cost $125 per student. Great Christmas present idea! Dates are already on the school calendar. Fliers should be provided to us soon. At least 11 students must be registered in order 

 

Please pray for our school, our students, and our families.  

 Peace in Jesus and Mary,

Mrs. Susan Massoud
