Students had their Popcorn and M&M treat day last Friday from earning over $15,000 by 1/5. So far we are at $16,900.00. If each family sells their 10 calendar tickets we can make our goal of raising $20,000 by 1/19.

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Student Council & PTO are asking all students to bring in a plain white T-shirt by Tuesday, 1/16. The 8th-grade students will help all classes tie-dye their shirts to wear during Catholic Schools week tie-dye day.

We celebrated our 8th-grade Boy basketball players and our 8th-grade Cheerleaders tonight. They have all been great role models to admire, and you will be greatly missed next year.

Congratulations to our Early Bird Prize Winners for Calendar Raffle sales.

Third Sunday of Advent.

St. Thomas has a virtue of the month every month that we are in school. Whenever a student is observed showing this virtue, they are given a tiger paw and entered into a drawing for half of the school year. Steve Fiscus from Horace Mann is generous in providing the gift cards and bicycle. Congratulations to the students who won the gift cards and Stella for winning the bike.
