Hurray for Magic Dragon Day!
The campus was filled with so much energy and laughter on Saturday and thankfully, Mother Nature held off the rain! From the Maypole Dance, tug of war, and field games, to Dragon cakes and carnival games, there was fun for everyone at this annual St M event. This year, Team BLUE was victorious and we congratulate them as winners of this good-natured yearly competition.
St. Michael's would like to extend our tremendous appreciation and thanks to the 2024 MDD chairs, Chas Bredbenner, Tiffany DeBorde, and their fabulous team of volunteers for making Magic Dragon Day such a special event. THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Be sure to check out our website's Media Gallery in the coming week for Spirit Week and MDD photos!
Go Team Blue! Team Go White! GO DRAGONS!

Time to Find Library Books!
Summer break is right around the corner, which means it's time to start looking for those missing and overdue library books. Mrs. Bryan-Diehl and Mrs. Carpenter are asking all St M students and families to put on their sleuthing hats, pull out their flashlights, lift up the couch cushions, and help find some books!
If a book is truly lost, as some will be, there is no expectation for families to replace or repay the cost of the book. Losing books is a part of library life. But we're hopeful that most of the missing titles can be found and returned so that we can keep our wonderful St. Michael’s libraries fully stocked and ready for reading!

Friendly Reminders
Every student should bring both a snack and a water bottle with them to school EVERY DAY.
