Halloween is part of the celebration of a Catholic feast day. Halloween, or All Hallows Eve, is the eve of All Saints which is celebrated on November 1st. On the Solemnity of All Saints, we celebrate all saints in heaven who pray for us and encourage us through their lives.
On Thursday, November 4th at 8:30 a.m., Mrs. Lomasto and the third grade class will lead the All School Mass in celebration of All Saints Day. Each student will be dressed as a saint and will briefly present some information about that saint. You are invited to join us for this special celebration.

Holy God,
Give the joy of your presence
To all who are sick and suffering.
Teach us to be grateful for
all the blessings we receive.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
A Message from the Principal
Last Friday students received a copy of their first trimester progress reports. This is an opportunity to see how your child is progressing in each subject before the official reporting period ends in November. If you find that your child is struggling, please do not hesitate to request a conference with his/her teacher to obtain information on how he/she can improve.
This month, we celebrate Our Lady of the Rosary. Consider taking some family time to pray the rosary together!
Finally, I would like to inform the school community that Coach Roger Briceno will not be returning to Incarnation School. We thank him for his two years of service and wish him well. Mr. Felipe Huizar, our current 4th grade assistant, will assume the role of P.E. teacher for preschool through 8th grade. This week the P.E. schedule will remain the same, however some P.E. schedules will be adjusted. If your child’s class is affected, you will be notified by his/her homeroom teacher. We welcome Mr. Huizar in this new capacity!
Have a blessed week!

SCRIP NEWS
DID YOU KNOW.....
Did you know that Super A Foods is a contributor through eScrip? I know I didn't. If you are a Super A Foods shopper and have your credit card signed up through eScrip, you could be earning profits every time you shop by using that credit card there. I just read that St. Dominic's earned over $1,500.00.
Did you know that Costco is already putting their Christmas items out? There are only 50 more Scrip shopping days left before Christmas. Avoid the rush, plan ahead, and start buying now.
Did you know that you can now purchase a "gift certificate" to present to your teachers/staff in any denomination? They can take the certificate you give them and shop at the scrip table for something they want, taking all the guess work out.
Did you know that Ralphs just sent us a check for $1,553.75? What wonderful news!!! Again, remember to sign up your friends, family, and neighbors and to update your account if you've not done it since September 1st (otherwise, you're not contributing).
Did you know that this was all brought to you by the wonderful and fabulous Scrip Team who are all working very hard to make this our best year yet. Keep up the good work team!
