Good morning, Sabers!
Just a reminder that your 2019-2020 school yearbooks have arrived and are available for pickup today from 9:00 a.m. to noon in front of the school. If you are unable to pick up your yearbook during this time, you may pick it up at any point during the first week of school from the front office.
We do have a limited number of yearbooks for students to buy who haven't already purchased one. The cost is $55.00 and you will be able to take home your book that day. These copies will be sold on a first-come-first-serve basis.
Copies of previous years' yearbooks will also be available for pickup throughout this time.There are a limited number of extra yearbooks from previous years as well, and they too are available for $55.00 on a first-come-first-serve basis.
If you have any questions, or are unable to pick up your yearbook at that time, please contact the school office at 217.352.7210 and ask for Miss Lyons.
Have a great day!

Congress continues to work on COVID relief for students and schools. In the coming days, we expect legislation, which has the potential to provide hundreds of millions in tuition assistance to Illinois' private school children. That’s where we need your help.
The School Choice Now Act would provide immediate and longer-term relief for private schools and the six million students they serve nationwide–220,000 of whom reside in Illinois. This vital legislation must be added to the upcoming round of COVID relief.
Timing is of the essence, and it is critical that we collectively ask our Congressional leaders to include private schools in the HEROES Act. We need your voice, especially as economic conditions worsen and policy decisions become more difficult.

Good morning, Sabers! We want to wish you all, but especially our principal Sister M. Bridget, a very happy feast day of St. Bridget of Sweden! St. Bridget was a very charitable woman, a devoted mother of eight, and wife to King Magnus II of Sweden. She was active in her faith from a young age, Our Crucified Lord even appeared to her in mystical visions multiple times throughout her life. Following her husband's death, she went on to found the Bridgettine order, which includes both religious sisters and brothers. Let's ask especially for her intercession today that we too might grow in a charitable spirit. Have a great day! St. Bridget of Sweden and St. Thomas More, pray for us!

Good morning, Sabers! Wishing you all a very happy Feast Day of St. Kateri Tekakwitha - especially to all our St. Kateri House Family members!
