With only a few days left in our Fall Food Drive, we're continuing to collect canned goods for the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry. Until November 19th, we kindly ask for donations of the following canned items:

- assorted canned beans (including black, garbanzo, and kidney varieties)

- any type of canned fruit - canned Manwich or sloppy joe

- canned pasta (such as Chef Boyardee) - canned soups, chili, or stew

A heartfelt thank you to all the families who have contributed so far.

Together, we can make a meaningful difference for many families this Thanksgiving season.

Thank you to everyone who supported the 2024 Student Fundraiser to raise money for outdoor seating near the playground! The fundraiser has officially ended, and the total sales are being tallied. Here is the process for how student prizes will be distributed: 

- Student sales will be tallied, and orders for their prizes will be processed as soon as possible. 

- There is no prize designating needed. For example, if a student reached 14 sales, they will get the prize for each category they cleared, meaning they would get the fidget spinner, USB light, and octopod tripod. 

- However, for students who sold over 75 items and reached categories H-J, to choose between the gift card or the prize item for each category, please check for an email from Mr. Horner asking for which item your child would like to pick. 

- Once shipped, prizes will arrive at the school and be delivered to each student's homeroom as soon as possible. Any further updates will be announced as they become available. 

Last but not least, any student who made at least one sale will be allowed to participate in the dress down day (DDD) on Monday, November 25th (the Monday before Thanksgiving Break). If you are not sure if your child made at least one sale, your child can ask their homeroom teacher to check the list and let them know.  Please be sure they ask before they leave school on Friday, 11/18! 

Thank you again for your support of St. Vincent de Paul School! 

A huge thank you for your support of the Book Fair. We could not have this event without many people who share their time, talent, and treasure with us. Proceeds will be used to buy new books for both St. Vincent libraries (K-3 and 4-8), as well as supplies for our 3D printers. We also collected $820.00 in new books for St. Augustine school in Winnebago, Nebraska. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!

Get your reminders set for your student to order hot lunch on Wednesday, November 20th because they won't want to miss out on this amazing "Friendsgiving" meal!

What does it take to make a Friendsgiving meal for a school of 800+ students?

26 turkeys, 12 gallons of gravy, more potatoes than we like to count, 80lbs. of corn, 24lbs. of cranberries, 6 - #10 cans of pumpkin, 72 tubs of cool whip, and a whole lotta love!
