I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone for making me feel so welcome this year at St. Nicholas! I can't believe how quickly the year has gone.
We will have a very busy summer as we prepare to move to the new building and welcome you back in August. I pray that everyone has a safe and relaxing summer!

She comes to us with many years of experience teaching 5th grade at St. Mary in Aurora and is an alum of St. Nicholas School! In addition to teaching, she will be our Curriculum Director and help with curriculum mapping throughout the school. During the interview, Mrs. Baker said, "Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a teacher and I thought, 'I want to teach in a place just like St. Nicholas.'" Sometimes dreams really do come true!Please join me in welcoming her to the St. Nicholas family.

Donate Your Backpacks:
Help the poor children in El Salvador by donating your backpacks! The 2019 El Salvador Mission Team is collecting new and used backpacks. The Mission Team delivers backpacks filled with food & other items to those in extreme poverty. The children get so excited to receive a backpack! The adults appreciate them too as walking is the primary means of transportation for many. Donated backpacks can be dropped off in the St. Joseph Pantry at the back of Church or given to Anita Schuman by June 10. Monetary donations are also appreciated – put in an envelope marked “El Salvador Mission Donation”; checks payable to St. Nicholas Church. Contact Anita Schuman at 812-212-4645 with any questions.
