Dine Out Night – Chipotle

The next dine out night will be on Tuesday, November 5th from 5 to 9 pm at Chipotle on 6005 O Street Suite A, Lincoln, NE 68510. You MUST mention St. Patrick’s in order for 33% of the proceeds to come back to the school. Mobile orders will not count. Plan on eating dinner there on Tuesday, November 5th and support St. Patrick’s School!

Cold Weather

St. Patrick school adheres to the school closing policies of the Lincoln Public Schools. The decision to close schools due to inclement weather is typically made before 6:00 a.m., at which time the local radio and television stations are notified. School closing information may be heard on local television channels 8 and 10/11 and AM radio stations KFOR (1240), KLIN (1400), and KLMS (1480).  If LPS is closed – we are closed. 

Remember that during the cold weather season, students will go outside for recess when the ‘feels like’ temperature is above 15 degrees. Please send warm coats, hats and mittens/gloves to keep them warm.
