Curriculum night is next week. On Monday, August 26, we have sessions for parents of students in grades Kindergarten-1-2-3-4-5.  Each teacher will have two sessions – one at 7:00 pm, and another at 7:30 pm, so families with children in multiple grades can see all of their teachers.  On Tuesday, August 27, preschool and junior high parents will attend.  The preschool session is from 7:00 to 7:30 pm.  The parents of 6^th graders will meet in McSherry. The teachers of 6^th graders will speak to them together from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. The parents of 7^th and 8^th graders will follow a rotation of your child’s schedule that will begin at 7 pm, and continue until almost 8:30 pm. There will be tables with representatives from area Catholic High Schools in the cafeteria, so you can obtain materials and ask questions as you plan for the high school years ahead.

The 2013-2014 Free and Reduced Lunch Order Form needs to be completed and returned to ASCA by all families who are applying by Wednesday, August 28^th.  Please contact Diane Huber at (630) 961-6125, or dhuber@ascacademy.org with any questions.  Copies of the forms and instructions in both English and Spanish are available at the school website, as well as in the school office.

All are welcome to attend our Welcome Back Coffee and SHPP meeting on Wednesday, September 11 at 9:15 am in Café 1(located across the hall from the school office) immediately following the school mass.  Whether you are a brand new school family or a seasoned veteran, please join us to learn more about SHPP (School Home Parish Partnership), upcoming events, and how you can become involved.  Please feel free to bring your youngsters along with you!  SHPP is a wonderful place to connect with each other as a part of the All Saints school community and family.  If you have any questions, please contact Robin Gullborg, SHPP president, at robinborg@sbcglobal.net.
