Our Ignatian virtues for October are “Curious and Active.”
Students in a Jesuit school are growing to be curious about
everything; and active in their engagement with the world,
changing what they can for the better.
“Just think about this: God, the creator of our vast universe,
made each of us in his own image and likeness to be his friend
and to cooperate with God in the great adventure of developing
this planet.”
Tuesday, October 22nd is our picture retake day. Any student
who did not have their pictures taken will get them done then.
You can order your pictures here: mylifetouch.com using this
Picture Day ID: EVTTF4JHQ
Students having pictures taken MUST be in formal uniform. Grey
pullover sweatshirt for Preschool, Red for TK – 5th, and Blue for
6th – 8th.
If your student had their pictures taken in September, and you
would like them redone, you must return the original pictures or
you will be charged for a new picture package.
There will be social gatherings and treats after each mass the
weekend of October 26 and 27. Kids can also make a
Halloween craft after the 7:30 am, 9:30 am or 11:30 am masses on
Sunday, October 27. See attached flyer for more details.
Join us on Sunday, November 3, 5-8 p.m., for St. Ignatius’s

Participants must attend both days of tryouts unless they receive
permission from the Athletic Director.
SI has a “No cut, no quit” policy. All participants at
tryouts will be placed on a team. Tryouts are closed to all
except named head coaches administration, and invited community
members. Please refer to the Athletics Basic Information
handout and the School handbook for all Athletic
policies.
As parents, we know that once you pick up the kids from school
it’s a mad sprint of activities, homework, after school snacks,
dinner and bedtime. Before you engage in the sprint, you can
prepare yourself with a little quiet time. And we have a great
place prepared for you inside the Church. The Church is open for
school families from 2 -3 p.m.
