Dear SPC Families,
I look forward to Celebrating 100 years of St. Paul of the Cross School Spirit tomorrow and honoring the legacy of Maggie Burke! The CTS program book went home Monday so everyone could review auction items and the adorable well wishes. I want to thank our wonderful co-chairs, Megan Weber and Kelly Bontempo, and their committee for all their hard work in planning the birthday party of the century! A special shout out to Mary Ploen, who has been the point person for CTS for the past 16 years! I look forward to raising money and toasting to the next 100 years with you tomorrow!
Student Council is still collecting donations for the “Souper Bowl,” which will benefit the parish food pantry!
