ANNUAL FUND
The Catholic school system is based on a spirit of loving service and generosity, both on the part of the parents/guardians and teachers. Family involvement is a necessity to providing quality education, as well as creating a faith community for our students. In today’s envelope, you will find our Annual Fund letter and envelope. This is one of our two fundraisers. Families pledge financial support and/or prayer in order to keep our school going. Your support is vital to the future of your children and all the future students who will become a part of the Sister Thea Bowman family. Seek joy in the giving.
We ask that each family return their envelope by Friday, October 17.
FONDO ANUAL
El sistema de educación católico está basado en un espíritu de servicio y generosidad, ambos de parte de padres y maestros. El compromiso de la familia es una necesidad para dar educación de calidad y en la formación de una comunidad de la Fe. En este sobre es una carta de Fundo Anual y un sobre. Esta es uno de nuestros dos suplicaciones. Las familias hacen un compromiso de dinero y/o oraciones para la continuación de nuestra escuela. Su apoyo es muy importante para sus niños (a) y estudiantes del futuro.
Pedimos que cada familia retorne este sobre antes viernes, 17 de octubre.
