Week of October 22,2012
Dear Parents,
JUMP ROPE FOR HEART: On Thursday, October 25,
the faculty, staff and students of Sts. Simon & Jude School will be
participating in “Jump Rope For Heart.” This event is conducted nationwide to educate students about the
benefits of aerobic exercise and heart health. The TYKE students will be
jumping in the morning with the 7th graders. Please make sure your
child wears his/her PE uniforms and tennis shoes.
FRIDAY: We will be attending Mass at 11:00 with
the rest of the student body.
TRUNK OR TREAT: This special event will be held
from 5:00 until 8:00. They still need assistance prior to the event, and the day and evening of the event. It is a
great way to earn service hours.
AUCTION: Remember to purchase your tickets to
the St. Simon & Jude Auction which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel
in Newport Beach on Friday, November 16. They also need help with this event.
Check the school website for more information.
