VOLUNTEERS: In last weeks folder was a "volunteer form". Please be sure to return them, so that we can make a final schedule. Remember, every family is expected to volunteer at least two hours during the school year. Many families have fulfilled this obligation already.

We have not had anyone sign up for "The Birthday Board" for April, May, and Summer. All materials purchased will be reimbursed by the Home and School Association. This is a great way to make up your two hours of volunteer work for the year!! Please help if you can.

We will soon be requesting help in distributing lawn signs, flyers to businesses, and in neighborshoods advertising our “Information Night” on April 13 at 6:30 PM. Perhaps you can volunteer your time with this project?

CORRECTION: The Boy Scout Pine Derby is this Monday, March 8th not the 15th.

KEMPS: Last week parents counted the Kemps Milk Caps and Grade 4 was the winner. This month we are collecting BoxTops.

TARGET: Don’t forget about Target. You can apply to participate in this fundraising program by submitting a completed Target Go Card application from any Target store. On your application, designate St. Michael School to receive donations equal to one percent (1%) of credit purchases made at Target stores. If you already have or know of someone who has a Target card call 1-800-316-6142 to designate our school to receive donations from your card.

MIDQUARTERS were sent home last week for grades 6 through 8. Parents, by now they should have been signed and sent back to school.
