On Wednesday, March 25, sixth grade students participated in a Seder Meal, led by Mrs. Guinotte.
During the Seder Meal, the students learned about some of the similarities between the Jewish Seder Meal and our celebration of the Eucharist.
This learning opportunity couldn’t have happened without the help of many.
From setting up, supplying food and drinks, participating in the Seder, or cleaning up, the volunteers listed below made this event possible.
Many thanks... 
Kayli Bendlin, Jackie Carlisle, Jeanne Petsick, Meghan Eggli, Michelle Haley, Ashley Hall, Robert Hall, Colleen Hilton, Stephanie Holmgren, Meghan Hope, Lindi Janulewicz, Karen Johnson, Leigh Lindstrom, Pam Luetkenhaus, Mari Martin, Maribel Mayorquin, Angela Miller, Michaela Morrison, Sara Muchowicz, Julie Nielsen, Erin O’Brien, Amy Peri, Chrissy Sakkas, Makayla Stiles, Angela Vogel, Brenda Witter, Michelle Wulf, and Katie Zimmerman.

This past weekend the Regional Science Olympiad was held at Millard North High School. Over 200 students participated in activities involving science, math, and engineering including the following students from St. Vincent de Paul:  Brendan Erickson, Justin Mwangi, Charlie Harris, Jude Zimmerman, and Graham Storm. These students represented our school very well in multiple events like Crime Busters and Remote Sensing and finished 6th place overall as a team.

We had team members who placed in the top three for individual events.

Graham Storm and Jude Zimmerman placed second in Code Busters

Jude Zimmerman placed second in Disease Detectives.

Congratulations to all of the participants who worked hard these past few weeks. Next up will be the State Science Olympiad in Lincoln, Nebraska.

After School Care Registration for 2026-2027

After School Care (ASC) registration for 2026-2027 will go live at 8:00 A.M. on Saturday, April 11. A live link for the registration form will be posted in the Click and Go! section of the school homepage at that time.

Every year, more requests for ASC services are received than can be accommodated; acceptance will be based on the submission order for registrations. Students not accepted initially will be placed on a waitlist; if enrollment or staffing changes occur, waitlist students will be added to the program when possible.

The ASC program fills up very fast (usually within 15 or fewer minutes of registrations opening).

Kindergarten Roundup

Kindergarten Roundup will be held on Wednesday, April 8.

Current kindergarteners will not have class on that day.

Parents of incoming kindergarteners for 2026-2027 can sign up for roundup sessions by clicking here.

All incoming Kindergarten and Grade 7 students (current 6th grade students) are required to have a physical exam completed before the fall of 2026 school year. Exams must be between March 1, 2026 and August 1, 2026. As soon as the physical exam is completed, the paperwork can be turned in at school. There is a form on the website that may be used. Included on the form are immunization dates, a full physical exam, vision screening, hearing screening, and health history. Your child’s physician does not need to use our form, but he/she will need to include all of the same information. Vision screening is required for students entering kindergarten. It is not technically required for students entering the 7th grade. However, if you ask for it to be completed during the visit, it will save your student some class time in the fall during school health screenings. Students’ physical exam forms and up-to-date immunization list must be turned in by August 1, 2026. Students will not be able to start school until these forms are turned in. Please see the link below for Nebraska immunization requirements and the health exam form. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out.

TeamMates Mentoring Program at SVdP (starts in 3rd Grade)

We are excited to announce that we are partnering with TeamMates Mentoring at St. Vincent de Paul School. TeamMates Mentoring was founded by Dr. Tom and Nancy Osborne in 1991. The mission is to positively impact the world by inspiring students to reach their full potential through mentoring. TeamMates Mentoring is a school-based mentoring program that matches students with an adult mentor based on shared interests or experiences. TeamMates Mentoring operates in 6 states now and is the largest school-based mentoring program in the nation.

The goal is to focus on the strengths. TeamMates is for every child, not because something is wrong—but because every child deserves an extra caring adult who believes in them.  These mentors also go through a background check and are Safe Environment trained. TeamMates mentoring focuses on building confidence, connection, and strengths in students of all backgrounds, personalities, and academic levels. Mentoring is about helping students discover who they are, what they’re good at, and what’s possible. Research and experience show that even 30–45 minutes a week with a caring adult can positively shape a child’s confidence and self-belief.

TeamMates Mentoring is currently operating in other Catholic schools here in Omaha, and their process is simple. If you feel your child would benefit from a mentor, then you or their teacher can nominate them. However, the child must want to have a mentor to be in the program. The meetings take place once a week in school, typically over lunch. Once the child is matched with their mentor, the goal is the mentor is with them through high school and post-secondary. Additionally, there are scholarship opportunities as well. TeamMates Mentoring is an investment in your child's future.

TeamMates Mentoring is always looking for mentors to join their team. If you are interested in learning more or becoming a mentor, sign up at TeamMates.org. 

Please contact Dr. Marchese or Mrs. Skudlarek if you would like your child to participate and have a mentor. Thank you!
