Family Messenger January 12, 2010

Most loving God,
May we learn to bring our need to you
and always to trust that you hear our prayers.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.


A Message from the Principal

Last Thursday our WASC Visiting Committee was here. We are fortunate to have a dedicated group of people working with us to validate what we do for our students. Each member of the committee has now received a copy of our self-study. They will be reading through the document as they prepare for the actual visit in early February. In addition to visiting classrooms, the team will also be interviewing students, faculty and staff, parents, and Fr. Paul. We look forward to the final stages of the accreditation process!

Have a great week!

Ms. Olivia Carrillo

Annual Auction
Packets for our spring auction were distributed in the home messenger just before Christmas vacation. If you did not receive a packet or need more information, please call the office or contact Susan Theiring (stheiring@incaschool.org).
There will also be a meeting next Wednesday, January 20 at 6:30 p.m. in the auditorium for anyone interested in volunteering for the auction.

SCRIP TIP
Congratulations to us all!! Over the Christmas Holidays, through your direct scrip purchases and rebates from Ralphs and eScrip, we made $10,095.19. AMAZING!!!!!!

Unfortunately, our Ralphs rebate is down by half. In the reporting that went from June to August, we earned $1,631.00. In the report from Sept. to Dec., we earned $828.23. What this means is that many of you are not signed up. Again in the home messenger, you will find a step by step instruction sheet of how to sign up. If you are having to much difficulty, please use the other side to have the checker scan the bar code and your Rewards card. If you end up using the bar code, I won't be able to give you family credit, BUT you will be helping the school. Please continue to solicit friends, family, and neighbors to do this as well. Every little bit helps. If you want to verify if you are currently signed up, I have a list at the scrip desk that you can review. You can also check the bottom of your receipt when you shop. It will say that you are contributing to Incarnation School.

Go to https://customer.ralphs.com to sign up your Rewards card for Incarnation.
