School Year Comes To A Close
It is hard to believe, but we are at the close of our 2009-2010 school year. It has gone by quickly and has been filled with many memorable moments. I want to say thank you to all of you for your belief in and continued support of Catholic Education. Without your faith and support our school would not and could not exist, so I say thank you. I would also like to thank all of you for welcoming me to Little Flower. It has been a roller coaster of a year, but I have enjoyed every minute. I am blessed to be a part of this wonderful community and I look forward to a bright and positive future for Little Flower Catholic School.
Congratulations Little Flower Graduates!
Congratulations to those students that will graduate on Wednesday May 26. The ceremony will take place at 7:00 p.m. and will be proceeded by pictures at 6:00 p.m. The students that will graduate are Jacob Abrahamian, Noelia Artigas-Herrera, Abby Baker, Melissa Bean, Ryan Bub, Emma Chmelir Taylor Cook, Pavel Elfrink, John Gibbons, Devon Grein, Addison Kobie Caroline Lipic, Mary Kate Malloy, Raine McDevitt, Christian Menne, Madeline Nathe, Anne Shelton, Logan Spies, Michael Troll, Ivy Vargas, and Thomas Verzino. Congratulations students and the best of luck in the future!
Final Information Packet
Our final packet of information for the year will be sent home on Friday May 28. The pre-schoolers will receive their packets on Thursday May 27. I hope that everyone has a wonderful summer and I look forward to seeing everyone in the Fall.
Minor Changes To Hot Lunch Program
There will be some minor changes to our Hot Lunch Program for the 2010-2011 school year. We will still bring in Pointer’s Pizza on Mondays and OB Clark’s on Thursdays. Finninger’s Catering will provide hot lunch service on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The price of the meals will be decreased to $3.30 per junior meal, $3.80 per regular meal, and $4.30 per supersize meal. With these changes in price, drinks will no longer be provided. Juice and bottled water will be sold a la carte or milk can be obtained through our milk program.
Field Day
On Tuesday May 25 we will have our annual Field Day at Deer Creek Park. The event will run from 9-12. Students may be dropped off starting at 8:45. The students will not eat lunch at the park that day. If the event has to be cancelled, there will be no school on that day. If bad weather is eminent please pay attention for Fast Direct messages and a Calling Post phone message.
Kindergarten Graduation
On Thursday May 27 at 6:30 p.m., our Kindergarteners will graduate and move on to the first grade. We would like to congratulate all of these students.
School Tuition and Fees
All tuition and fees for the 2009-2010 school year must be paid in full by May 31, 2010. Report cards will not be released and school records will not be sent until all payments have been made. Please make the necessary arrangements to have the payments completed on time.
Little Flower Day w/ The River City Rascals
Thank you for your support this school year! As a special event we have scheduled Little Flower Day with the River City Rascals, the independent pro baseball team in O’Fallon, MO, on Saturday August 21 at 7:05 p.m. This is NOT a fundraiser, but a cheap night out for the whole family with tickets only $5 a person! Every Little Flower ticket holder is entered into a special raffle to throw out the First Pitch! Other highlights, especially for Little Flower include a pre-game parade on the field, leading the 7th inning stretch, prizes, raffles, and more! Look for the flyer in the Blue Tuesday folder. For questions or details contact: Darlene Koeller via Fast Direct or ddkoeller@hotmail.com or 314-754-1443.
Paul VI Courses Available
Are any of you interested in learning more about the theology and doctrines of our Church? If so, a Paul VI class might benefit you. For more information regarding the classes that are offered through the Paul VI program, please visit www.archstl.org or call 314-792-7000.
How Often Do You Shop Online?
My guess is that like myself, many of you shop online frequently. Little Flower School has partnered with an organization called School Mall. This company will allow you to shop at many of your favorite merchants, while earning money for our school. Information was home on Tuesday March 2 in the Tuesday Packet. If you are interested please fill out the information and return it as soon as possible or stop by the office to complete a registration form.
Easy Fundraising For Little Flower
How often do you use Search Engines? My guess is that you use them often. You can raise money for our school while completing your searches. Use www.goodsearch.com and you can support our school. They give 1 cent for every search that is made. Over the course of a year this could translate to hundreds of dollars for our school.
St. Louis Archdiocese Golf Tournament
The 10th Annual Ryan/Governal Golf Tournament, benefiting Archdiocesan scholarship funds will be held on Saturday June 10, 2010.

May Charity (Birthright)
For the month of May our charity will be Birthright Counseling Services. This non-profit organization provides counseling and services to pregnant women, providing them with positive alternatives to abortion. Please remember that when your child brings in money they are not only earning the right to wear play clothes, but much more importantly they are supporting a worthwhile charitable organization. You can feel free to donate larger amounts than what is asked as you are supporting wonderful organizations. The charities that we have supported throughout this year have been the St. Patrick’s Center, the Maggie Welby Foundation, the Chromosome 9P- Foundation, Sophie’s Kiss, the Susan G. Komen Foundation, St. Vincent De Paul Society, and the Make A Wish Foundation.

Helpers Of God’s Precious Infants
Did you know that abortions are performed only 8 blocks away from our Cathedral Basilica? First reactions to this might be shock, outrage, or sadness. Rather, this close proximity of good and evil is a great opportunity for hope and change. Helpers of God’s Precious Infants can help to make this happen. On the third Saturday of every month, you are invited to the 8:00 a.m. Mass and prayer vigil at the Cathedral Basilica. After Mass, the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for Adoration. All who are able are invited to pray the rosary during a peaceful procession to the abortion facility at Forest Park and Boyle. Upon return to the Cathedral, all participate in Benediction. The event concludes at 9:45. For more information contact Maureen Kane at 647-6019.
