Dear Parent,

Thanks to everyone who made our Catholic Schools Week a success. Many activities were held and many community speakers talked to our students about "Dividends for Life". St. Mary Schools collected $1651. from the basket raffle, bingo proceeds, and penny challenge. All of the funds will be forwarded to the earthquake victims in Haiti. Great job everyone!

The KofC Valentine Dance sponsored by Home & School was successful again this year. They netted about $950. There was a great turnout and everyone had fun. Thanks for your support!

Reminder…In order to qualify for Diocesan or Parish Tuition Assistance, parents must complete a Facts application on-line. The deadline date is March 15, 2010. call Mrs. Beaver for assistance.

The St. Mary/Marion Catholic Auction Gala is scheduled for Saturday, March 6, 2010 at the John M. Boler Activity Center from 6;00-9:00 p.m. Come out and support our schools.

Any family who recruits another family for the 2010-2011 school year will receive a $200.00 credit towards their tuition bill.

St. Mary has used 4 calamity days so far this year. The Ohio Department of Education grants 5 calamity days for all schools in Ohio. St. Mary will be making up the day(s) if needed in June.

All Father Furey Applications must be returned with taxes attached by April 1.

Mr. Rush

Sincerely,
Bob Rush, Principal
