Stuffed Animals Wanted: 
The much-loved Pet Palace, where students can use Magic Dragon Day tickets to select a stuffed animal friend, returns to Magic Dragon Day this year!  Please bring in your washed, gently used stuffed animals! Collection bins are in the Lower School and Middle School front offices.

Gently Worn Clothing Wanted:
The Dapper Dragon makes its debut at Magic Dragon Day this year! Shop this curated selection of gently worn spirit wear, cotillion dresses, and blue blazers. Collection bins are in the Lower School and Middle School front offices.

Volunteer for Class Booths:

Faculty Update: Christian Hansen

Dear Friends, along with my current role at St M, I am currently pursuing two master's degrees in Christian Education and Public Theology at Union Presbyterian Seminary in Richmond. It has been an extremely fulfilling and rewarding journey. In addition to my coursework, I am required to attend a 3-week travel seminar before graduating.  I am extremely grateful and pleased to share that the School and St. Michael's Church both supported my participation in a travel seminar to Egypt and Israel from April 22 to May 14. 

While I am gone, Erbie Godwin, former St. Michael’s teacher and Middle School Administrator, will be subbing for my classes and the Reverend Jeunée Godsey will lead chapels along with our students. I look forward to being back with you all in mid-May. - Blessings, Christian Hansen, Chaplain
