2017-2018 School Year

Dear Parents & Friends,
January 30 will be a “Day of
Giving to Catholic Schools”. The
day was designed by our tuition
company, FACTS, Mgt. and the
National Catholic Educational
Association.
Our school is registered to be
a recipient of the generosity of
donors to Catholic Schools.
The link to donate to OLU is
https://archkckcsks.giving.factsmgt
.com and will only be open from
9am Jan. 30 until 9am Jan. 31.
Even if you’re only able to give
a little or you are able to share
the information from our
Facebook page with your
friends, you would be doing a
great thing to help OLU.
I know that sometimes it may
feel as if you give the school so
much of your time and money
already but I can honestly tell
you that as much as you may
give, it is nowhere near what we
need to sustain the school.
Donation drives like this must
be successful to keep OLU
thriving. We hope you will help.
God Bless!
Nancy Butters
REMINDER
Attendance Interruption is
next Wednesday, Jan. 24. If
you owe money for book fees,

that day.
