HOLY CHILDHOOD CATHOLIC SCHOOL

The HCS Annual Variety Show is a show that our kids have been working on for the past few months. Each grade performs a dance or act. Grandparents, family, friends, etc, all are welcome to attend.

LOCATION: MASCOUTAH HIGH SCHOOL AUDITORIUM.

Doors open at 5:30, and students should sit with their class. It’s generally about an hour and a half long. Please communicate any questions with your classroom teacher.

All little girls of the parish are invited to wear their Easter dresses or First Communion gowns on Sunday, May 3, for the 10:00 AM Mass. They will honor Mary by processing in and placing a flower in a vase in front of the Mary statue. If possible, please have the girls come to the prayer center by 9:45 or 9:50 AM so we can practice; they will then go sit with their family members after they place the flower in the vase. ( Roses provided)

We are also in need of four young boys to help carry the Mary float. We ask that they wear their Sunday best as well.

If anyone has questions, they can contact Ronda Beck at 618-975-3505.

PLEASE NOTE:

Our "SPECIAL TREAT" every year is an annual trip to McDonalds with our military kids and families. Every year it has been held on Friday afternoon, but this year we will need to move it to Thursday. We ask that all students and active moms/dads that are able, to meet at the front of school at 1:15 PM on Thursday afternoon.

We will walk to McDonald's for a tasty treat, enjoy our time there, then walk back.

I can always use some supervision / support from any moms and dads that are able.

I will send a reminder to all of you next week!

Thank you, everyone!

H.O.P.E. has several activities planned for our teachers throughout the week, but we need your help!

These former HCS students were inducted into the Mascoutah High School Chapter of the National Honor Society on Tuesday evening.

Congratulations, Caroline, Olivia, Jordyn, Jaxon, Darren, Hayden, Emma, and Kate!

You probably have heard of National Honor Society (NHS), but if not: Founded way back in 1921, The National Honor Society (NHS) is a premier nationwide organization for high school students, recognizing those who excel in academics, leadership, service, and character.

For everyone's participation in our "1st Attempt" at our GooseChase initiative. We hope you were able to get off those screens and spend time outside (or inside) with family and friends.

Now, heading into the summer, we have a few new things to do. In next week's newsletter, we will have our Summer Plans for GooseChase. We hope that all of you will be participating!

But, for the most part, this is our calendar for next year. I will have a finalized calendar ready to go before the end of the school year .

...some of you might know that I keep an "Emotional Support Chicken" for my students. Not to make light of true emotional support animals who provide comfort and care to those suffering from mental concerns, my chicken is there to also provide some support for some of our students who might need a little light-hearted "pick-me-up".

Ms. Colon an Ms. Henke....THANKS FOR THE SMALL GIFT!
