All Saints Day & Day of Giving

Since All Saints Day falls on a Sunday this year, we will celebrate with Mass at 8:15am on Thursday, October 29^th. Please consider joining us as we gather in prayer, remembering the saints who have gone before us and led by their example of love. You may RSVP here. All students should be in full uniform that day; no out of uniform passes. 

October 29^th is also our 6^th Annual Day of Giving! On this day we celebrate all that makes ASCA special – the students, teachers, parents, alumni, and friends of All Saints who support our mission of creating saints and scholars. Funds raised on the Day of Giving help us maintain and continue to improve our facilities, academic offerings, and school culture. Please consider supporting the Day of Giving; more information will be shared next week. Thank you!

Halloween

We will celebrate Halloween as a school next Friday, October 30th. We will not have a school Mass on this day. On Oct. 30^th, parents are welcome to join us for a Costume Parade at 2pm on the Recess Pad, weather permitting. Please see more details for each Academy below.

• Preschool: Students may come to school in their costumes. Parents are welcome to join us for a costume parade at 8:30 in the gym. Class parties will be 8:45-9:45am.
