A Few Announcements

Volunteers Wanted!
During the weeks of April 4th and April 11th we will be learning about community helpers. If you (or a relative or family friend) work in the community, help others and would like to volunteer to come in part of the day during these two weeks to share about your job, please let me know! Since this is more of a presentation and not working directly with the children, everyone is welcome and volunteers do not have to be fingerprinted or have Protecting God's Children.

Summer Birthdays!
I know a lot of students will have birthdays over the summer. We would like everyone to get a chance to celebrate their birthday with their friends. If your child has a summer birthday, please pick a day that you would like to celebrate in the classroom. Treats may be brought in and parents may join us for snack time and bring a book to share with the class. Please let the preschool know a few days before you would like to celebrate so we can mark you on the calendar. Thanks!

Protecting God's Children Seminar
Blessed Sacrament, 394 East Main St., Newark, is hosting a Protecting God's Children Seminar on Saturday, March 26th at 9 am in the school cafeteria. In keeping with VIRTUS polity, no one will be admitted to this session after the first video has started. Go to www.virtus.org to register for session. Please remember that in order to work with or volunteer around children of our parish, school and Diocese, you must attend a session of Protecting God's Children and have a background check on file with the School and/or Parish Office. For more information contact the parish at 345-4290.
