Reminders about recent things sent home from school:
     * Juice Box packs for Catholic Schools Week breakfast bags due Wednesday
     * eWallet instructions for the Book Fair - make shopping cash or check free 

Please remember whenever sending money into the school that it should be in an envelope clearly marked with your child's name and the reason.  The best place to put the envelope for them is either in their My Homework folder or better yet stapled in their Homework copybook.
