The Parent Organization is excited to bring you our first March Madness…a month we've planned that's full of activities, raffles & fundraisers to help bring our school community together during these difficult times and to show our St. Patrick’s Shamrock Pride during the month of March!
1) Our RaiseCraze Kindness Challenge & Fundraiser will kick off on Monday, March 1st - stay tuned for more details about this unique way for us to raise money for our school while making an impact in our families and our community by performing Acts of Kindness.
2) Our St. Patrick’s Day Tee-shirts are in and will be available for pickup on Friday, 2/26 (Cohort B) and Monday, 3/1 (Cohort A). Pickup time/location will be during morning drop-off only (7:30a-8:15a) in the secondary parking lot. Tee-shirts can be worn in-school and on Zoom during the month of March.
3) As a part of our RaiseCraze Kindness Challenge we will be holding a School-Wide Service Project – we will be doing a grocery collection for 50 families in need on Staten Island. More details to come about this – each grade will be assigned a type of food to donate. Drop-off will be in the schoolyard on dates to be announced soon.
4) Pizza Friday Lent Fundraisers – we have coordinated dine-out fundraisers with Barios & Casa Verde for different Fridays during Lent, starting with this Friday, 2/26 at Barios – order from these places on the designated night and they will donate a portion of your order total back to St. Patrick's! More details will be released about this soon!
5) St. Patrick’s Logo Gear is available again for order through Special Tees with some fun new items in stock – tie-dye tees and hoodies, baseball hats, raglan tee-shirts – as well as previously offered items that you may have missed. The ordering site is open now through Monday, 3/22. The site will shut down on that date for Special Tees to process all orders. Delivery is expected during the week of 4/12 and all orders will be available for pickup in the schoolyard on dates to be determined. https://specialtees-si.com/product-category/st-patricks/
6) We will be doing another round of Raffles starting Monday, 3/8! There will be some opportunities for you to use your Fair Share coupons (if you didn’t already use them up during the Christmas raffles)!
7) Support an amazing fellow student in our school’s Annual Dress Down for Pietro Scarso on Wednesday, March 3rd and Thursday, March 4th. While you do not need to make a contribution, we encourage you to visit the website link and make a small contribution if you can. http://www.pietrosfight.org
More details will follow about each of the items mentioned above. We hope you're ready to celebrate March Madness with us!
