There will be a parent focus group meeting at All Saints Catholic Academy on:

September 29, 2015 at 1:15pm – 3:15pm

The Executive Committee also decided to utilize the process of the Joliet Diocesan Catholic Schools Office to conduct the search for a new principal.

The 21^st Annual “Light of My Life” Outdoor Mass will be held at the grotto in Sts. Peter and Paul Cemetery on Sunday, October 11^th at 6:15 PM.  The intention of this evening is to dedicate a luminaria as a silent tribute to any person(s) who may have touched your life in a special way, deceased or living, past or present.  Information about Luminary Service Hours for this event and the Luminary Order Form have been included with this newsletter.

The school has moved to electronic payment of both tuition and most other fees via FACTS.  Tuition payments are made automatically from the checking/savings account on record based on the Payment Plan selected by each family.  For all other incidental charges that will be paid to All Saints throughout the school year, a family will need to select the Auto Pay feature to ensure that your payments are made electronically at the time that they are due to the school, which is within 10 days of the billing date.

It is our goal to have all families on Auto Pay by Friday, October 2, at which time we will be instituting a late charge of $25 for all incidental charges that are not paid in full by the invoice due date.  Please contact Patty Bajek at (630) 961-6125, or pbajek@ascacademy.org with any questions.  

Friday, October 16^th is the 3^rd annual Move Your Feet To Give A Child A Seat event sponsored by the Catholic Education Foundation.  While we do not ask our students to go out and solicit, we do want to support this great Diocesan event.  So….We will have an out of uniform day on Friday, October 16^th. Students bring in $1 that day and wear their casual clothes (good judgement is still required – no short shorts, tube tops or spaghetti tops – no army boots or colored hair – no shredded clothes, etc.   We remember that we are still in God’s house.)  

Our fall book fair will be held October 13-16 in McSherry Hall and we need volunteers to help with setup, escorting students to and from the fair and cashiering.  We have many shifts available so feel free to sign up for more than one!  Please use the following link to volunteer:  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0d4eaeab2aab9-asca2.  As always, you must have completed Protecting God's Children to help out.  If you have any questions, please contact Darlene Newman at newmdar@gmail.com.
