Dear SPC Families,
There is such an amazing spirit here at St. Paul of the Cross School! The sense of community, the energy of our teachers, and the incredible support of our parents are what make SPC so special. Last Saturday night, many of us came together for our annual gala, Celebrating the Spirit. It was a night to be remembered!
I can't begin to thank Jeannie & Bob McNamara and Megan & George Panothiocas for their TREMENDOUS energy in planning. Thank you to their entire committee and Mary Ploen for all their efforts in planning an amazing evening which raised a good deal of money for our STEAM program and construction of the UGC Lower Level!
Please take a moment to read the letter from our co-chairs directly beneath my letter. We have so much to celebrate!
Have a wonderful long weekend and stay warm!
Peace,
Dr. Erika Mickelburgh
Principal
Wow! What a night! CTS at the Oscars was a huge success! Thank you to all of our volunteers who helped make it such a fun event. Everyone looked so good on the red carpet!
SPC is truly an amazing community, and once again, we celebrated our school’s spirit with tremendous generosity and support. With the focus on our STEAM program and construction of the UGC Lower Level (new Science/STEM Lab and Library), CTS at the Oscars has raised over $130,000!!! All of which will go directly back to supporting your children's education. We cannot thank you enough for your support and generosity and your commitment to Catholic education and St. Paul of the Cross School.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we are finished. We still have our Teacher Celebrations, Mother Son Dinner, Father Daughter Dance, Out of Uniform passes for 2020-21, and a few Party Boards that are online now through next Friday, February 21st.
Please click on the CTS website to sign up!
Please don't delay if you are considering any of the fabulous parent AND family parties, or the Teacher Celebrations as they all close at the end of next week.
On behalf of the Celebrating the Spirit Committee, thank you again for your generosity and support for St. Paul of the Cross School!
Bob & Jeannie McNamara
