Dear
Parents,
Perhaps
the best way to
inform you of what
I need to say is
in the “list
format.”
- Tomorrow
is the feast
of the Immaculate
Conception, a Holy
Day. Mass
will be at 1:15
PM in the Auditorium. At
7:00 PM our Performing
Choir will sing
at the Crèche
in Pittsburgh. Our
bus will leave
here at 5:30 PM
and return at 8:30
PM. We have
a few seats left
at $5 per person. If
you are interested
in going, just
call the office.

COMPANY!
- Please
identify all
clothing, lunch
boxes, sweatshirts,
and uniforms with
child/ren’s
name or initials
on the inside tag.
- Have
the children
keep a sweater
or Butler Catholic
sweatshirt in their
locker in case
they tend to get
chilly. Due
to the size of the
building, some
rooms tend to be
warmer or cooler
than others. Students
can always take
off a sweater or
sweatshirt.
- At
lunchtime, we
like to take
the children
outside to play
as much as possible. This
is always governed
by the weather
conditions. Please
dress the children
to go outside – warm
coat, hat, and
gloves.
- I
know that
phone calls have
been made concerning
outside play. Unless
there is a doctor’s
note saying that
a child’s
health is in jeopardy
by going outside,
children will go
out. Fresh
air helps keep
children healthy. We
always check the
weather conditions
before they go
out.
- Please
remember to call
the School Office
at 724-285-4276
by 8:15 AM if your
child/ren will
not be attending
school for the
day. A written
excuse is required
upon his/her return
to school.
- With the approach
of colder weather,
please remember
to listen to WBUT,
WISR, KDKA, WPXI,
or WTAE for any
delays or cancellations. We
follow Butler Area
School District’s
delay or cancellation
schedule.
- Children
are to be in
their homeroom
when the 7:55
AM tardy bell
rings. Anyone
who is not, is
TARDY even if they’re
walking in the
front door. If
the bus is late,
it is indicated
as such on their
attendance sheet.
- The Student Council
is sponsoring “Donuts
With Santa” on
Saturday, December
16, for children
ages 2 through
second grade. Please
check the enclosed
flyer for more
details.
Thank
you for your cooperation
and continued support
of Butler Catholic
School. Spread
the word
about our school. Let’s
aim to have two rooms
of every grade with
20 students in a
room. Together
we can do it!
May
this season of Advent
be filled with many
blessings and graces
from our Provident
God. May these
days be restful and
stress-free. God
bless.
Gratefully,
Sister
John Ann |
