Teacher Appreciation Week May 5-9
We can’t wait to celebrate all the wonderful teachers/staff who help our children each day at school! This year we are doing something a little different and providing lunch for the teachers each day of the week! Much like “Thankful Thursdays” of years past, two grade levels will pair up to provide lunch on their sponsored day.
Additionally, we are asking for cards/special treats for our faculty/staff – take a look at the daily agenda to plan ahead!
Thank you for your support as we try to make next week special for our teachers and staff! For questions please contact our chair, Lori Sturtevant at [email protected].
Special Lunch Ordering for All Students on May 27 & 28
To help simplify lunch during this year’s Olympics, we will be opening special lunch orders for all grades on Tuesday, May 27, and Wednesday, May 28. Please place your child’s order as usual through the app or FACTS.
Important: All lunch orders must be submitted by Monday, May 19 at 12:00 pm. Once the ordering window closes, it cannot be reopened.
To streamline the process, we ask that each parent place a lunch order for their own child. We will not be assigning food responsibilities to team parents this year.
Lunch Options:
• Tuesday, May 27: Chick-fil-A
• Wednesday, May 28: Pizza
All grade levels are welcome to participate and order on both days.

Where: St. Edward the Confessor Church
When: Saturday, May 17 from 9am to 6pm

This retreat is designed especially for middle school youth to discover what it truly means to be a saint in today’s world. Through dynamic sessions, engaging activities, and the inspiring stories of real saints, your child will uncover the foundations of a holy life: loving God, seeking truth, and having the courage to follow Jesus boldly.
Give your child the chance to grow in their faith, build lasting friendships, and walk away knowing they are Made Known and deeply loved by God.
