Hello Crusader Families!

I pray that you all had a beautiful week and were excited to hear our recent announcements.  We have another exciting announcement to share regarding the Open House on August 26th… Our Gym will be OPEN and available for you to tour the amazing updates that the Knights of Columbus have done to our locker rooms, mezzanine, and gym area!  They have been so busy this summer making our beautiful school even more attractive, and we are so very grateful and blessed for everything they have done for Holy Name.  Thank you to each and every one of you that donated time, talent and/or monetary donations to this amazing project – We can’t wait for you to see it!!

As you know, we had some staffing shifts in the kitchen and the office for this upcoming school year, but we are thrilled to have both of these areas covered and ready to serve you and your students this fall.  Mrs. Katie DeGrand, a familiar face, and Mrs. Ann Hogan, a new face, will assist Mrs. Bobbi Farley in the kitchen as kitchen assistants and Mrs. Maddi Lynch in the office as the receptionists.  One of them will be available each day in the kitchen during lunch times and at the receptionist desk from 10:00-11:00am and 1:00-3:30pm.

We are still looking for Recess and/or Lunch Room Supervisors and a CGS Teacher.  These are two part-time positions, but could be combined to make one position if someone is interested in more hours.  If you or someone you know are looking for a couple hours a week, please send them my way.  See the flyer in today’s Crusader for more information and please share the flyer on Facebook when you see it posted.

Finally this week, just a reminder that our office will be closed next week, the week of July 27th.  August hours are listed below.  Please stop in during August office hours to shop our FREE UNIFORM CLOSET!!  We have several new and gently used uniforms available for you to shop.  Please take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.

August Office Hours

• 4th and 6th (8am-2:30pm)
• 11th and 13th (8am-2:30pm)
• 17th and 19th (8am-2:30pm)
• 24th, 25th, 26th, and 27th (8am-3:00pm)

Praying that you enjoy the rest of July and Summer Break!

God bless,

Mrs. Brief 😀

Hello Crusader Families!

I pray that you’ve been able to stay cool and safe during this hot, hazy period we are having this week.  As promised, I have a very exciting announcement to make this week. I’m pleased to inform you that Miss Sophia (Sophie) Wessel is joining our Holy Name Family as our new, second 5th Grade Teacher!   Miss Wessel was a former Holy Name student during her Elementary years and now rejoins us as a teacher – Once a Crusader, Always a Crusader!  Miss Wessel comes to us with her Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and also has three years of experience teaching 5th Grade!  Please watch for a Facebook post later today with more information on Miss Wessel, and please join us in welcoming her to our Holy Name Family!

The beloved U.P. State Fair will be in town before we know it and we’re very blessed to have a booth again this year thanks to the generous donation of the Kobasic Foundation!  Our booth will be located outside the grandstand area again with fun giveaways, so be sure to stop by!  If you would like to help with the booth, you can sign up by using this link https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B45ABA722A0FAC25-64294388-holy.  If all slots are filled, please reach out to Mrs. Jane Arts who has graciously picked up several time slots and would be happy to share a spot or two with you!  You can reach her at jarts@holynamecrusaders.com or by calling 906-786-7550. Once again, a huge thank you to the Kobasic Foundation for their continued support of Holy Name!

I continue to pray that you have a fun, safe summer!
