FRIDAY FLYER SAINT RAYMOND SCHOOL

Issue: 2/14/20

We have had an exciting week with the 7th grade boys A team winning the Northwest Catholic Conference Championship on Sunday. Our team also

was undefeated during the regular season with a record of 10-0. Well done Saints! Also, we have reached 1,340 books out of our goal of 1,500 books for

Bernie’s Book Bank Drive, which runs through 2/19. We are well on our way to exceed our goal and give our love of learning to others. We end this

Valentine’s week by spreading our own love for reading during our For the Love of Reading Day.

In upcoming news, The Archdiocese of Chicago Parent Survey opens this week on 2/18. Please be sure to take a moment to fill it out. Also, please

note that registration for 2020-21 is due March 2, 2020. If you have not yet completed the required forms, please do so. Have a great weekend! Follow us on Facebook!
