Our Spring Program’s theme this year is “Disney: The Movies, The Music.” Students have the option to dress in a Disney costume for the Spring Program to add to the Disney fun!

Costumes need to be from an animated Disney movie (no Avengers costumes for example) and they may not wear any masks. They also have the option to wear Mickey Mouse ears if they have those. If your student wants to dress in a costume specific to their songs, here are the movies each grade is singing from:

• PreK-2^nd grade: Mickey Mouse March, Peter Pan, and The Jungle Book
• 3^rd-5^th: Mary Poppins, The Little Mermaid, and The Lion King
• 6^th-8^th: The Lion King and Aladdin
• Choir: Frozen, Tangled, and Moana

Dressing in theme is totally optional, and students can wear their uniform or dress in their Sunday best as well.

School Store

We want to personally thank all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore program! If your family has not participated, there’s still time!

There is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.

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.
