During this Holiday Season, Saint Bridget School, as usual, will be collecting non-perishable food and paper products for the Food Pantry. They
have asked that along with the regular items we include some Thanksgiving and
Christmas specialty items, i.e. Coffee, Tea, Cookies, Candy, Hot Chocolate and
juices. Thanksgiving donations should be in by November 12th. The
Student Councilors will bring the items over to the Food Pantry in the name of Saint Bridget School students. Because the holiday season is upon us any
and all contributions to the Food Pantry will be accepted on an ongoing basis
for the months of November and December. Thank you for your generosity!
If a parent needs to use the Extended
Day Program because of
emergency circumstances, please let Mrs. Peterson know via email at vpeterson@saintbridgetschool.info. The
Extended Day
office does not open until 1pm
but email will be checked throughout the day. Mrs. Peterson will forward
the information to Mrs. Feeney who will then inform your child's teacher
regarding the change in dismissal. Thank you.

To Parents and Students,
The 8th grade is organizing an
assembly to inform and educate the students on what Veterans Day is and what it
means. This assembly will take place on Tuesday, November 10th at 8:00. At the beginning of the
assembly a child from each class will carry in an American flag. This assembly
will only be about 10-15 minutes, and parents are welcome!
Attention all 7th and 8th graders
St. Bridget School
will be offering a wonderful experience to any young musicians in the 7th or
8th grade. The Eastern Junior Districts Festival will begin with
auditions on Saturday,
January 30, 2010 at Concord-Carlisle
High School.
St. Bridget students will audition at 2pm. There
are five junior district ensembles: Band, Orchestra, Jazz Band, Mixed Chorus
SATB, and Treble Chorus SSA. Both boys and girls are eligible to audition for
the Soprano and Alto parts. Each registered participant will receive
an adjudication and the top performers will be invited to rehearse and perform
together in a final concert. Students will be selected from all parts of Eastern
Massachusetts so it is a potentially very exciting experience
for our students. The cost is $15/student for the audition and all of the
information is available on the website: http://www.mmeaeasterndistrict.org/ Payment of $15 should be made payable to St. Bridget School
and submitted to the school by December 10, 2009.
Please mark "Attention: Debra Parker" on the envelopes and let
me know via email or phone if your child is planning to audition. It is
important that you check the website now for audition requirements as your
child will want to be well prepared for the audition. Again, feel free to
contact me if you have any questions.
We have a DVD of last
year's concert so if anyone would like to see/hear this, they are welcome to
borrow it. Let's have a wonderful showing from St. Bridget School!

AMERICA RECYCLES WEEK: November
9-15: National Recycling Week provides Americans
with an opportunity to improve our recycling habits, learn about what we can recycle
and how to recycle properly. Even a small shift in your attitude and actions
can make a difference. When you recycle your newspapers, office paper, and
envelopes in the Paper Retriever bin in our parking lot, our school earns
money.
Previous weeks Weekly Memos may be found in
news.
