Dear OLMC Community,
Wow! What a wonderful Fall Festival this weekend! Thank you Home and School along with the Dads’ Club for hosting this fun, family-friendly event!
Cooler weather is here! Place your orders as soon as possible! We have also ordered a stock of some new sweatshirts in the office to purchase too. We will send an email as soon as they arrive. We currently have a lot of larger sizes on hand. Please remember per the dress code the children need to be wearing OLMC outerwear. There is also a new, heavier jacket being offered on the spirit store site. Upi may go to the school website or directly there: olmcspirit.com.
Tuesday, November 1st, is a holy day of obligation. We have Mass for All Saints’ Day.
Curtis Orthodontics is offering their Candy Buy Back which will begin on November 1 and end on November 4. Bring all your extra candy to school to donate to the troops! Dr. Curtis will also donate money back to the school for the candy!
