NEWS
Drop Off & Pick Up Reminder
Please do not leave any young
children (not yet old enough to stay at home by themselves) in your
vehicle while going in the building during drop off or pick up. Please ensure your child, if appropriate is
in a car seat/booster seat appropriate for his or her age. Our student's safety at school is our top
priority. As such all of us at ASA are Mandated Reporters and we are
required to make a report if we were to observe any of this happening -
even with children not in our school.
Thank you for
understanding - please let us know if there are any questions at all about
this and if we can help in any way.
Workathon 2016 – Save the Date: October 29th
All Saints Academy families will be
participating in our Workathon fall fundraiser.
Workathon will be Saturday, October 29.
Please look at the packet in your
youngest child’s Thursday folder.
This contains important information – please take a moment to review.
Workathon provides a great service
to the community by assisting older citizens and those who are physically
challenged with their fall chores. Jobs
may include raking leaves, picking up litter, cleaning out gardens, stacking
wood, etc. Our students ask local residents, relatives and special
friends to make a donation in support their work. This year students have been busy writing
letters to prospective donors in an effort to reach out to others for support
of their work and our school.
The
St. Cloud Campus’ goal
is $34,000. Each student’s personal goal
is $200. When classrooms reach certain
goals, there are prizes for the class.
If you know of someone who is need of help with fall yard work, please

ocean surrounding the islands of the Pacific. 2nd grade will be wearing
white to symbolize Europe, the home
of the Holy Father. 3rd grade will be wearing yellow symbolizing the morning
