Financial aid can help
you AND it helps the school. Many of our programs (including

how many of our students receive some sort of tuition
assistance. The assistance is there,

online and submit it directly to
the AoD. These applications are due by April 15, 2014 for the

PTO - Pennies for Playground News THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK
YOU!
After an exciting week, the St. Mary PTO would like to send out
an enormous thank-you to all of the students, parents, teachers
& staff for such a great response to ourPayback the Loan spring
campaign. In just one week we raised $1,476.79, and thisalong with
the other money we have been earning, is now enough to pay back our
loan!
We would also like to thank the teachers for their flexibility
and allowing us to (quietly)enter your class to retrieve the
container daily. We certainly appreciate all of you, andwhat you do
for our children of St. Mary School.
Congratulations to Mrs. OConnells 3rdgrade classroom who won the
pizza party thatwill be sponsored by the PTO.
However, everyone is a winner because the PTO promised the
entire school a specialtreat if we reached our goal, which we did.
Sometime in the next week, everyone will
enjoy a goodie during their lunch hour.
I would personally like to say THANK YOU to the coin counters
that volunteered:Jenny Marcon, Angela Puente & Sequoya
Szczechowski. We could not have had asuccessful week without your
assistance.
Dont forget, we are still collecting cans & bottles outside
of school until the end of theschool year. We hope to raise enough
funds to purchase a trash receptacle & bench forthe playground,
so continue to bring in those returnables and let us take care of
themfor you.
