Teacher Appreciation Week May 7-11
Have you heard of teacher appreciation week? This is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the wonderful,
dedicated teachers at Sacred Heart. Teachers play a key role in every individuals development and growth.
Consider sending your childs teacher a note or card letting him/her know that your child has enjoyed their class
and that they have been appreciated throughout the year. Make your teachers day by telling them, even a simple
thank you can mean so much. Our teachers deserve a pat on the back for all the time and dedication to the
Sacred Heart Community. The class art projects for the Live Auction is just one example of the extra time our
teachers are proud to participate in.
Spread the news! We have added another kindergarten classroom for
fall 2012! Sacred Heart will have two small classes of kinder next year. We have room for more students.
Please let family members, friends, and neighbors know!

Uniform change for next year 2012-2013
1. The School Advisory Committee has approved adding red logo shirts for next year. However, only Donalds red logo
shirts may be worn, NO plain red polo shirts due to the variations of red.
2. Two options for shirts: Donalds will be offering the regular polo logo shirt and a new option for all will be a banded
uniform shirt. This will eliminate the shirt from having to be tucked in. We strongly recommend this for K-3 students.
3. Girls solid blue skorts will not longer be allowed as part of the summer uniform
