May Crowning

For centuries, the Catholic Church has set aside the entire month of May to honor Mary, Mother of God. We plan to crown Mary, Our Mother, Thursday May 1st during the 8:00 school mass. Thank you to the St. Patrick Youth Choir for preparing the music for this event!

Students may bring fresh, unwrapped flowers to lay before Mary as we process in to mass that day.

*Students may wear blue on top with uniform bottoms to honor Mary this day.

Learning Fair

Learning Fair

The St. Patrick School Learning Fair will be held on May 2^nd. The event will showcase the Jr. High Science Fair, a middle elementary Wax Museum exhibit, and a lower elementary art exhibit.

During this event, a raffle will be held and the money raised will go towards the purchase of new textbooks and scholarship funds for students who will attend Pius X High School.

The Learning Fair Committee is in need of the following raffle donations to make this event a success:

• Gift cards (of any value)
• Toys and games (new, in packaging)
• Sports Memorabilia
• Admission Passes or Tickets
• Monetary donations of any size

Any donations can be sent to the school office. Please note that they are for the Learning Fair when dropping them off or sending them.

Thank you for your generosity and consideration!

Fundraisers

SCRIP

What is Scrip? “Scrip” turns everyday shopping into cash for the St. Patrick Church and School. Purchase gift cards at face value in advance to use at checkout, instead of paying with credit, debit card, check or cash.

How Does It Work? Purchase gift cards at face value from local merchants who designate their own discount percentage ranging from 1.5% to 30%. The discount amount translates to profit for the St. Patrick!

• $50 Marcus Theatres gift card at 8% = $4 St. Patrick profit
• $100 Walmart gift card at 2.% = $2.50 St. Patrick profit

Purchase SCRIP before shopping by filling out this form and turning it into the parish office or call in your order to the rectory at 402.466.2752 and we can prepare your order ahead for you. SCRIP can  also be purchased at the parish office or after weekend masses.

We’re excited to share that our school is participating in Cash for Classrooms, part of Casey’s Rewards. This opens up St. Patrick School to new funding opportunities to help improve learning environments for students.
The best part? Donations don’t come out of your own pocket. When you buy from Casey’s and use their rewards program you can simply turn your points into a donation to our school.
Help St. Patrick School make the most of this program and learn more at Caseys.com/schools.
