Announcements
Rice Bowls
----
At St. Mary's School we continue to spend time focusing on the three pillars of Lent: almsgiving, fasting and prayer. We have chosen to encourage the students to collect their spare change, earn extra money at home or donate from an allowance to fill up the Rice Bowls. In some grades, the teacher keep one Rice Bowl in the classroom to collect the money, in some grades students were given a Rice Bowl to collect their money at home and bring it in. This is a voluntary school-wide activity to help our students with the idea of giving alms during this solemn time. Rice Bowls may be turned in up through Friday, April 8th.
