Dear
Charlotte Catholic Parents:
The
holidays are behind us, and the academic year half over. It’s a good time for
the PTO to thank all parents who have been so generous in their support of
Charlotte Catholic High School. A look at PTO efforts thus far:
-
Each teacher and staff member received a Christmas bonus – thanks to
all families who have contributed thus far, and yes, we are still accepting
checks! Please mail to Jean Mazzucca (see address below) or send to school
in an envelope marked “PTO.”
-
Each family has received the Student Directory, which is paid for
with PTO dues ($35 per year, we are still accepting those, too!). Please
let the office know if you haven’t received your directory.
-
Breakfast with the
Principal was
great fun, though bad weather did limit our numbers. Parents, we’ll do this
again in February and May -- watch Edline for dates.
-
Our teachers enjoyed a catered dinner as school started, dinner
again during parent-teacher conferences, and a holiday
breakfast. Food is love, and we love our teachers!
-
Prospective students and parents enjoyed refreshments at the Open House
in November, thanks to the efforts of Donna Focht.
Donna has also organized
a team of parent bakers who are making many school events even nicer – thank
you!
-
All teachers and staff receive a birthday card with Starbuck’s
gift card. We also honored Jerry Healy, Angela Montague, Randy Belk and
Steve Carpenter on Principal’s Day in November.
-
Seniors and their families kicked off senior retreat with Mass and
potluck dinner, hosted by junior parents.
-
Like that new message board in front of school? The PTO and the
Athletic Association teamed up for this great addition.
-
Yet
to come this year: Post-baccalaureate Mass reception for seniors and
their families and last but never least, the post-prom extravaganza,
traditionally hosted by freshman and sophomore parents and chaired by
Kathi Kneir.
Thank you,
Kathi!!!
-
And to our grade parents, please take a bow. It’s a four-year
volunteer commitment that begins freshman year. They work with the PTO to
make everyone’s life a little nicer. Thank them when you see them!
Freshman:
Ann Hatton, Maureen Regele, Judy Ellis
Sophomore:
Mary Ann Thomas, Ellen Barcelona, Shayne Brannon
Junior: Jill Brehm, Cherie Bouchon, Donna Birch
Senior: Mary Margaret Bishop, Suzanne Tans, Joanne Alexy
Please
contact us if you have any questions, concerns or ideas that the PTO can help
with. And again, thank you so very much for your support. Happy New Year!
