BOX TOPS “Hello PTO”- My name is Donna Borges. I am the volunteer coordinator for the Box Tops for education. This is our first year at Box Tops and our goal is to raise money for our students to purchase needed items. I invite you to learn more and go on www.boxtopsforeducation.com. Please start clipping. One of the really easy ways is to gear your grocery list with anything that shows the box tops label. Please clip these labels and turn them in to the school office. The class with the most box tops clipped by the end of the school year will be awarded a lunch by McDonalds, given by the Rose family. Our goal is to raise$100.00 worth of box tops by the end of the year. SCHOOL BOARD The School Board was officially formed in its first meeting with our pastor, Fr. Jose. After formally adopting its Constitution, the School Board immediately reviewed the results of the Accreditation Report and the associated tasks to undertake this year, as presented by the principal, Mr. Downes.

Biance Bill Manint Norb Walz We are very grateful for their willingness to serve our school community, and ask our good Lord to bless them! Are you still undecided about the future education of your child? Do you know somebody that has a child between the ages 3-8 and wants a good education? Our new Catholic School is open. We have been approved for the Florida Pride Scholarship Fund. We have also private scholarships available. What are financial scholarships? Financial scholarships provide grants to those families who believe strongly in a Catholic education; however, the financial obligations are beyond their means. Our financial scholarship grants do not require repayment by the family. Who can apply? The family bears the primary responsibility for financing a child's education to the extent of their financial means; however, we invite and encourage any family who finds difficulty in meeting the financial obligations of their child's education to apply. Part of the mission of the school is to provide an education for all children regardless of the ability to pay. Please, give us a call at 863-385-7300 and ask for Piedad. Last Chance for Tuition Assistance: We can provide additional money for your students’ tuition if you complete a FACTS application. Please call Mrs. Noriega for more information: 385-7300. St. Catherine Catholic School offers programs for children from Preschool through Second Grade. Students develop sound academic skills, critical thinking skills and an ability to learn independently and cooperatively through a rich academic curriculum. Each day is designed to bring new excitement and opportunities to engage in meaningful learning. For information, call 385-7300 or visit our website at www.stcathe.com. LABELS FOR EDUCATION
