End of School Year Reminders: Please pick up all medications, cough drops, Chapstick, etc. that are in the school

summer and lost clothing will be put in the exchange closet or taken to Goodwill if non-uniform.

House Accounts: House Accounts for June lunches and milk are due. That would total up to two hot lunches and up

to 10 days of milk for each child. Please check in at the office for your final amount due!

Current Address: Parents, if you have moved over the past year, please make sure that the school office has your

current address for summer mailings (report card, back to school info, etc.). Also, if your phone number has changed,

please let us know. Thank you.

Librarian Appreciation

We really appreciate all that Mrs.

Zellner does for our school!! She is a

hard-working and very faithful

volunteer!!

She runs a successful Scholastic Book

Fair every year. It is a major

fundraiser for the library and brings

in many new books!

She comes in week after week, rain or

shine, reads to our students and

teaches them library skills. She keeps

track of all the books, checking out,

checking in, and restocking the

shelves.

She is always ready to lend a hand and help out in the office or

wherever she is needed! We treasure her!!

THANK YOU MRS. ZELLNER!

Sacred Heart Catholic School, a mission of Sacred Heart-St. Louis Parish, forms children in knowledge,

virtue and the spiritual life in a safe and positive educational environment that they may develop into

disciples of Jesus Christ.

Dear Sacred Heart Catholic School Parents,

It has been a pleasure working with the students, staff, and parents throughout this past school year. I cannot

believe our 8th grade class graduated last night, although I do know they were ready and I do expect great

things from them as they go through high school years and beyond. I am very proud and impressed with each

student in the Sacred Heart Catholic School class of 2015! They will bring pride to the high schools that they

will attend, not only because of their individual talents, but because of their strong spirit of faith. May our

Lord bless and guide them on their life’s journey.

Today’s Wednesday packet will contain a 2015-1016 school calendar (please note that school will begin on

August 31, 2015) and the school supply list. This information will also be available on our website:

www.shstl.org.

The end of this school year is a sad time for all at Sacred Heart School as we are saying good-bye to our

beloved school secretary, Mrs Karen Nys. Her presence will be missed, but we are thankful for the ten years

she has spent fulfilling our mission of forming children in knowledge, virtue, and the spiritual life as they

develop as disciples of Jesus Christ. Please join us in thanking her for her dedicated and caring service and in

wishing her many blessings for a happy retirement.

Report Cards will be mailed to each family the week after school is out. Please be aware that if Tuition and

or House Accounts have outstanding balances, the Report Cards will be held.

I am so excited about the three recent grants that we have received for Sacred Heart Catholic School! We

received a grant from the Oktoberfest that will allow the school to add graphing calculators for our seventh

and eighth grade Math program! We have been blessed again this year with a grant from the Salem Catholic

Schools Foundation of $57,000 for Bricks, Mortar, & Technology (B, M, &T) projects! The funds are

designated for the completion of the heat and air conditioning ($45,000) that had begun last summer! The

boiler will be decommissioned! We will be able to place column/post protectors ($2,000) on the covered play

area with the Archdiocesan Safety Grant and the B, M, & T grant combined. The remaining funds ($10,000)

are to be used to set up our new Pre-K Program. Sacred Heart Catholic School is truly blessed and I thank

God for all he has provided for us!

On behalf of the faculty and staff I would like to offer a BIG THANK YOU to all parents who have

volunteered your services this year. We could not have done it without you!

Have a safe, blessed, and restful summer!

Lucy Shindler Shawn,

Principal
