ANNOUNCEMENTS

The Paper Wednesday Envelope

While the new emailed school Newsletter is currently going out each Wednesday to parents who have signed up, those same families will also continue to receive the paper version until the end of the year. This spring has been our beta testing of the electronic newsletter as we look to next school year, and improving our effort to be environmentally concerned.

Attention Eight Grade Parents and Students

Please submit candid photos of past St. Cecilia School events or activities for use in a slideshow at the Graduation Lunch. Please include your name or your child’s name on the back of each photo so they can be returned to you. Send photos to Jack Murray Room 15.

"Aladdin"

Tickets for all shows of our spring musical "Aladdin" are on sale. There are still a few Friday and Saturday night seats, and plenty of seats for Sunday’s matinee. "Aladdin" is shaping up to be one of our best shows ever with a handsome and talented Aladdin, a perfect Princess Jasmine, a genius of a Genie, villainous Jafar, and a crazy cast of narrators, snake charmers, harem girls and others. Don’t miss this show!
