Friday Letter 10/16

​Dear St. Sebastian Families,
 
Thank you to all who were able to attend and help out at the church yard sale. It was an exceptionally hot day but filled with the cool spirit of our St. Sebastian community.  Fr. German had prepared food and refreshments along with many other families.  I loved seeing some of our graduate families and students, a reminder that once your a Spartan, your always a Spartan.
 
Tomorrow, Oct. 17th we will be opening our doors to the community for our first open house.  Yes, families are already looking for schools for the 2016 school year.  Remember to spread the good news about St. Sebastian school, we love referrals.
 
Update on the cafeteria: Today we received the ok to start work on the kitchen and cafeteria.  The kitchen will be cleaned out for renovation first, followed by the cafeteria.  I will let you know what the expected completion date is once it has been established.
 
SPC meeting update: On Tuesday the Spartan Parent Club met to discuss upcoming events.  Look for invitations to volunteer at our Halloween Festival, and valet drop off in the mornings.  Planning for the upcoming Chocolate Sale was also on the agenda.  More information will be going out as we get closer to the Nov. 22nd.  This is a great fundraiser for the school, so everyone’s help is greatly appreciated.
 
Our first after school food sale was a great success.  Thank you to our ASFST (afterschool food sale team) for all your hard work.  Can’t wait until next month!
