It is never too early to start that Christmas shopping.  You can start this Fri, Nov. 20 right here in the Immacolata Cafeteria.  Home & School will be sponsoring a Stop & Shop from 8:15-9:15AM.  Wendy McGowan and her wonderful gift cards will definitely be there as well as the fun Auction T-Shirts and Immacolata Bears.S

peaking of Wendy McGowan, she thanks all who are using their E-script cards at Schnucks.  These free little gems raised $253 for Sept. & $2176 for the year to date.  Don't have one?  You may get an E-script card at Schnucks at the courtesy desk by simply asking.  Before you slide your credit card, you give the E-script card to the clerk, who then slides it, and voila, you've given back to your school!  No extra work, trips or money!

Late Breaking Auction news: 1) CORRECTION:  The Jive & Wail Party will be held on Oct. 17, 2010.  Pen that in your calendar now!  2) The following parties are now full:  Carriage Ride, Cooking Class, Eggs & Ornaments, & Jive & Wail.  All remaining parties will be held open for the rest of the week.  Contact Maureen Baumer (mbaumer@earthlink.net) for more info. 3) STILL AVAILABLE:  You may still purchase Auction T-shirts for $20 in the school office.  Limited supplies in most sizes remain.   Also, Auction DVDs are available for purchase for $20.  Simply send a form or note requesting the DVD with you check (mark DVD in the memo line) through the Wed. Envelope.  Last, but not least, please send in your Tile forms ASAP.  Tiles are $100 but they will immortalize your name in the halls of Immacolata. 4) FOUND:  A woman's black, full length, suede coat was left behind at the Auction Gala.  Please contact the school office (991-5700 x302) if it is yours.

Don't forget to send back the Lacrosse/Golf interest forms.  You are not committing to these sports at this time, but expressing an interest in perhaps starting these programs at Immacolata.  Fun with sticks!

Did you know? Among all the schools in the state of Missouri who participated in Jump Rope for Heart last school year, Immacolata ranked 12th in funds raised.  Congratulations to Mr. Menke, our students and our generous families.
