Archdiocese of New York - Safe Environment Program

Many, many heartfelt thanks to all those of you who have cooked and continue to cook for the Malaguit family, whose son was paralyzed earlier this year. They are tremendously grateful for our assistance.

Attention all new parents and all those who have never attended a Safe Environment class.

A Safe Environment class will be offered on Thursday, September 28th, at 7:30PM in the Parish House. No one can volunteer around the children or chaperone school trips unless they have completed this course.

Registration is not required, just show up.

Faculty Lounge, 7:30 pm

We’ll be discussing Brewster Founders Day, the Alumni 80^th Anniversary Gala Dinner and weekend, and the Open House schedule.

Dear Parents,

What a great couple of weeks we have just completed. The two Back to School Nights were very well attended as was the Welcome Coffee for New Families. I am very grateful to the members of our Home School Association Board for a wonderful presentation and all the families that volunteered for our various fundraising events and school activities. I still need additional help with the Silent Auction and the Card Party. I will be contacting the parents who were not able to commit to an event on Back to School Night to secure your help for one of the upcoming events. A friendly reminder to send in your Silent Auction Gift. Some suggestions might include: gift certificates, linens, bottles of wine, gardening items, tools, gift cards, books, gourmet foods or teas or coffee, crystal stemware or china, nursery room items, etc. or a monetary donation. “Re-gifting” is welcomed but all items must be new. With everyone’s help, our efforts are sure to be a success!
