Dear St. Celestine School Parents and Guardians,

Summer fun continues for our school families. Here are pictures of more activities and adventures.

Some of us visited Washington DC.

Some of us stayed closer to home and went to the Elmwood Park pool.

A lot of us went to the Fourth of July Parade! It was a great time.

We do have some fun events coming soon. The St. Mother Theodore Guerin Parish garage sale is in the parking lot on Saturday, July 13 from 9 am until 2 pm.

The SMTG Parish picnic is Saturday, July 28 starting at 10 am at Evans Field in River Grove. There’s a flyer in this week’s Brown Envelope, if you’d like to learn more.

Should you need anything, the school office is open from 8 am until 1 pm on Mondays through Thursdays. We are busily getting ready for the 2024-2025 school year, with Organization Day being on August 6 from 4 pm until 7 pm.

Please mention us to any families looking for a new school. There is space in many grades and we look forward to continuing to build our wonderful St. Celestine School family.

With Gratitude and Blessings,

Sheila M. Klich - Principal
