NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY TUTORING
Any student who would like to receive tutoring from an NHS member should send an email to Mrs. Fiorante at lfiorante@stpatrick.org or one of the students listed in the Weekly Reminders. Please include your full name and email address and you will receive a google doc to fill out to help match you with the tutor who can best help with your requests.
Faculty, counselors, and parents may encourage students to utilize this service, but students should email the request. If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Fiorante.
THANKSGIVING FOOD DRIVE FOR SAINT CELESTINE CHURCH’S ALVERNIA FOOD PANTRY
Beginning Tuesday, November 10, Lasallian Youth will be collecting non-perishable food items during Lunch Periods on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the Saint Celestine Church’s Alvernia Food Pantry.
We ask each student to donate at least two non-perishable, non-expired goods (students may also donate a minimum of $2.00 in place of the items). Students who donate will be given a wristband that entitles them to a Dress Down Day on Wednesday, December 9 (Gold group) or Thursday, December 10 (Green group).
While we are requesting two items, our hope is to collect as many non-perishable food items as possible for this year’s Thanksgiving Food Drive.
CHRISTMAS TOY DRIVE FOR ADVOCATE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL
This year, our Christmas giving will be directed towards helping to bring the Christmas spirit to patients at Advocate Children’s Hospital in Park Ridge. Due to restrictions on collecting, sorting, and delivering items, we will be collecting money to purchase items from their Amazon Wish List (Amazon gift cards will also be accepted).
We are challenging the Saint Patrick family to collect $850 for this collection. Mission money will be collected in A Period classes each Thursday and Friday beginning Thursday, November 12.
If we hit the $850 goal, we will have a Dress Down Day after Christmas Break. The highest giving class (based on number of students in person) from all A Period classes will receive a pizza lunch on Tuesday, December 10 (Green group) and Wednesday, December 11 (Gold group).
We will accept donations from full-time Remote Learners and the community in the Main Office for the Thanksgiving Food Drive and Christmas Toy Drive during regular office hours (Monday – Friday from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm).
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Perez or Ms. Wood.
