SEPTEMBER 24, 2025

Dear St. Celestine School Parents and Guardians,

As the weather moves into the crispness of fall, we have quite a few items worth noting.

We are planning for a return to the Queen of Hearts Raffle this school year. Our planning committee met last week to get started. The next meeting is on Wednesday, October 8 at 7 pm. We will get an update on the license, a place for holding the raffle, and ways to expand ticket sales. This is a huge opportunity for the school.

As the weather gets colder and students wear school sweatshirts, we encourage you to write their names on the tags.

We have a number of exciting events coming soon. Please mark your calendars for the following:

  • There is no school on September 26 because the teachers have a Professional Development Day.
  • There is a 2 pm dismissal on October 7.
  • Our next Parents’ Club Meeting is at 7 pm on October 7.
  • Picture retakes are on October 3.
  • Parent/Teacher Conferences are October 9 and 10. Dismissals on those days is at 11:30 am, and no after care is provided.

Thank you for everything you do to help support St. Celestine School.

Blessings,

Sheila M. Klich - Principal
