SCHOOL NEWS:  Paddy and Pints, Frozen Fridays, Nature's Place Work Day St. Vincent de Paul Society, and Family Honor a

1.      Paddy and Pints - Get your sitter lined up, your friends together, and practice your Irish jig! It's time for the inaugural Paddy and Pints St. Patrick's Day Bash. Enjoy an adults-only casual evening of fun, complete with dinner, dancing, drinks and silent auction. On Saturday, March 17, you need go no further than our own OLPH Stagmaier gym for a catered dinner, beer and wine, and a DJ for dancing. Advance tickets (before March 3) are $40 per person or $80 per couple. Get yours early! Cost goes to $50 per ticket on March 4. All proceeds go to the OLPH Annual Fund for playground improvements. Everyone is invited, so bring your OLPH and non-OLPH friends!

2.      Frozen Fridays - During the season of Lent, Frozen Fridays will be moving to Thursdays. Please send $1.00 with your child for an ice cream treat on Thursday, Mar 8, Mar 15 and Mar 22.

3.      Nature's Place Work Day - Matt Stovall has been keeping an eye on the weather and he thinks it is looking good for this weekend. If you can lend a hand with getting the raised beds cleared of weeds and re-filled with soil, they will be ready for our students to get into in time for planting season! Please respond if you can make it anytime between 9 AM to noonish Saturday morning, March 3. Bring gloves, wheelbarrows, shovels and picks if you have them. This is a great and fun way to get to know some other parents in the school and earn some PIP hours while making OLPH a better place to grow and learn! You are welcome to bring your whole family, so Virtus training is required.

4.      St. Vincent de Paul Society - Beautiful Art Prints of our church painted by current art teacher, Mrs. Mullins, and former art teacher, Ann Meinert, are for sale in the school and parish offices for $25.00.  All proceeds go to the St. Vincent de Paul Society for the poor in our community.
