THE WEDNESDAY ENVELOPE

Corpus Christi Catholic School

February 5, 2020

 
FROM THE PRINCIPAL

NEW  The faculty and I offer our sincere thanks to all of the parents who donated so generously to our Day of Giving during Catholic Schools Week. The replacement of the choir risers was originally developed as a two year project due to the cost.  Due to the overwhelming generosity of our school parents our original goal was met in a matter of hours and the second goal we set was surpassed as well.  The total amount raised was over $6000.00 which will enable us to purchase most of the components this year.  Hopefully, they will be here in time for the spring music concert. We are truly blessed to be members of such a generous community.

NEW  On Tuesday, January 25th , several fifth grade students, accompanied by Mrs. Carol Messa, participated in the Dream It, Design It competition sponsored by the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit. The students from each participating school worked as a team and were given a problem, and they had to think creatively and work together to develop the solution.  Avery Donahue, Christian Estrada, Ben Martin and Bobby Stankiewitch enjoyed the experience a great deal.

Reminder  Please see this attached letter from Mrs. Lafferty regarding Flexible Instruction Days.

FROM THE SCHOOL OFFICE 

NEW  Attention parents of 7th grade students:  Local high schools are accepting registration for practice scholarship exams.  Look here for dates and registration links.

NEW  Calling all 5th - 8th grade students!  It's time for our annual talent show.  Solo and Group acts are welcome.  Look here for more information.  All permission slips must be returned no later than February 18th in order to audition.  Don't miss out on this chance to show off your talent!

8th GRADE PARENT NEWS

FROM THE CCS OUTREACH CORNER

NEW  Proceeds from our February 4th Dress Down Day will benefit the Wounded Warrior Project for our 7th Grade Outreach Project.  The mission of the Wounded Warrior Project is to honor and empower wounded warriors.  Their purpose is to raise awareness and enlist the public's aid for the needs of severely injured service men and women, who have incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound while serving in the military on or after September 11, 2001.
