Mass
Our next school Mass will be held on Thursday, June 11th at 9:00 am. Sixth grade is preparing this celebration. Msgr. Mike Delaney will be our celebrant. Everyone is welcome to join us.
Student Council
Student Council will conduct one more service project before the school year ends. We will hold one more food drive of non-perishable foods, either boxed or canned, to help stock the shelves of the Greater Pittston food pantry, located at Seton Catholic, for the summer months. The pantry helps to feed well over one hundred needy families in our area, so for one last time this school year we will celebrate service by putting “Cans in the Van”.
Graduations

Pre-School Graduation

On Wednesday, June 3rd, at 10:00 a.m., the 4 year olds of our pre-school will graduate. If there are siblings of these students in grades K-8, those siblings are welcome to attend the graduation. For them to do this the parents must send in a note by May 29th to the teacher indicating that they will be taking the child out for graduation. The children should be in school for the morning. In order not to disturb the teachers too often, all of these students will be allowed to leave at 9:30. They should return to the school after the ceremony and reception are over. Have a great time.

Eighth Grade Graduation

Our eighth grade class will be graduating on Sunday, June 7th at 2:00 p.m. Mass and ceremonies will be held at St. Mary’s Assumption Church. All are welcome to attend, especially their 1st grade “buddies”. A reception will following in the school hall for everyone.
