Dear St. Anne Catholic School Families:


Our All the Glitters Gala is just one week away and is sure to be an evening to remember. We hope you will be joining us for our celebration. If you're unable to attend, you can still help to make the event a success by participating raffle ticket sales and bidding on the Silent Auction when it opens online. The link to the online auction is here. Let's make this year's Gala the best!

 

Holy Week on campus is culminated by our annual Holy Thursday student retreat day. Our retreat day was filled with worship and praise, learning more about our faith, and the Shadow Stations of the Cross presented by our 8th graders. As Lent ends, and we begin the Triduum, let us reflect on our Lenten journey in anticipation of the celebration of Jesus' rising on Easter.

Wishing you all a wonderful Easter filled with joy and blessings.


With gratitude,

  

Kendall Shamas, Ed. D.

RAFFLE TICKET SALES

RAFFLE TICKET INFO

Raffle tickets for our All that Glitters Gala were distributed to students this week, so please check those backpacks!


This year we are doing our raffle a little bit differently - rather than having 3 or 4 items that we will draw winners for at the Gala, we are going to draw one winner every school day during the month of May. Each day one winner will receive a gift card valued between $25 and $100. See the image below for details regarding which gift cards are assigned to which days. 




Raffle tickets are $10 each; every winner will more than double their money! Please bring raffle tickets with you when visiting family and friends over spring break. Winners don't need to be local!


We are asking each family to sell 10 tickets. Please return ticket stubs to the front office in the bag you received the raffle tickets in so we can properly account for all tickets distributed and ensure incentives are awarded properly. Please return any unsold tickets to the front office.

Incentives for raffle ticket sales are as follows:


Each family that sells one book (10 tickets) - one free dress day (5/3)

Each family that sells 5 books - lunch with Corporal Foote

Each family that sells 10 books - silly string the Principal


Raffle tickets will be sold through the end of April.


Thank you for your continued support. I am grateful for this amazing community.
