There will be small classroom baskets from each class for the silent auction. You are not obligated to contribute, but if you would like to, please bring your donations to school by Friday, November 19th. The themes for each class are listed below. If you find or have a new item that works with a theme from a different class, please feel free to donate to any of the classroom baskets. Scrip or gift cards are also great additions. If you have any baskets, bags, coolers, boxes, etc. that would work well to put the silent auction baskets together, please drop them off at school or contact one of us and we will pick it up.

Dear 2nd Grade Parents,
Second grade is such a milestone year for your children! This year your children will receive both the Sacrament of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.
Student lessons consist of two essential parts. First, the students will be taught and prepared for these sacraments on an ongoing basis throughout the year by Mrs. Van Helvoirt within the day-to-day classroom setting. Second, students in all Green Bay Diocese Catholic Schools also participate in their local parish lessons/activities.
Therefore, please watch for communications pertaining to parish activities from Mrs. Anne Stemper, Parish Discipleship Formation Coordinator. Please contact her at stclarefaith@stclareagw.org if you have any questions or conflicts.
Mrs. Stemper shared the following dates with us. We will leave this information posted on this blog for your reference.
Blessings,
Mrs. DeGroot, Mrs. Bartosch, and Mrs. Van Helvoirt
