Crazy for Our Country Guidelines

We’re excited for our upcoming “Crazy for Our Country Day” on Monday, November 9! This spirit day is an opportunity to celebrate our nation together as a school community. Students are encouraged to wear red, white, and blue, stars and stripes, or other nonpartisan patriotic attire. To keep our celebration focused on unity, clothing and accessories featuring political party names, candidate names, or political slogans or symbols are not permitted.

Through this day the Student Council will be raising money for Folds of Honor (foldsofhonor.org). Folds of Honor provides scholarships to the spouses and children of America’s fallen or disabled service members and all first responders. Donations should be given to your child’s homeroom teacher.

Join us for St. Louis Spirit Night on Wednesday, November 11 at Rotolo’s Craft & Crust from 6:00-9:00 PM. Be sure to mention St. Louis when ordering.

Please make plans to attend the 34th annual Arts and Crafts Show right here at St. Louis on Saturday, November 21! Both gyms will be filled with more than 100 vendors to kick off the Christmas shopping season! Support local vendors and small businesses while also supporting our senior high youth ministry! Win win!
The due date for half of all total service hours for 5-8 grade students is Friday, December 4.
