Registration 2008-2009: We are accepting Admission Applications for the 2008-2009 school year. You need to send in your Application in order to be eligible for the screening process. Applications may be downloaded from our website at www.saintbridgetschool.info or you may call the school. For questions please contact Ms. Nigloschy @x229. . ***screenings are only for students NEW to St. Bridget School. Those already in our school do not need screening (nor do they need to reapply) to move from one year to the next.*** re-registration for current students takes place in the Spring (see above).

There will be two Open Houses for prospective families to St. Bridget School at the end of March. They will be held on March 30^th from 10am-2pm and March 31^st from 9-11am.

We Need You...For the Open House on March 30^th. We are looking for parents’ help to 1) plan OR 2) attend the upcoming Open House. This open house will go from 10am – 2pm in an attempt to catch families, grandparents, parishioners after the Sunday masses. The format will be different from our other open houses in that we want people to mill around the school and ask questions of the teachers, students, and parents.

For help in PLANNING the open house, we are looking for creative parents (& students) to work on ways to move visitors along---Signs with “Did you know?” facts or a scavenger hunt are just a few ideas.
For help on that day, WE DO NOT EXPECT PARENTS TO STAY FOR THE WHOLE TIME, but we are hoping that we can have approximately 3 parents for each hour interval (10-11am, 11-12noon, 12-1pm, 1-2pm). We would try to station one parent on each floor to answer questions and show visitors around that floor, if desired.

IF you are able to help either prepare or on the day of the Open House, please contact AnnMarie MacIsaac at 508-405-4374 annmarie@rcn.com or Mary Chowdhury at 508-879-1308 mchowdhury@rcn.com. THANK YOU! We look forward to hearing from you.

Father/Son night at Teamworks, in Northborough is coming. Mark your calendars now for Saturday April 12^th, from 5-7pm. “Fun for dads and sons of all ages.” There will be 2 sports venues, one with a bouncing castle and balls and another with sports equipment of all kinds. Pizza dinner and drinks are included. Invitation flyers are coming home this week. If you have any questions, please call or email Jennifer Ryan 508-872-0331/superryans@rcn.com. Hope to see you there!

The Student Council would like to thank everyone for the food donated during their Food Drive last week. The Student Councilors delivered a large supply of food to the Parish Food Pantry on Friday.

PTO NOTES:

With all of the changes in our weather this winter, it is nice to start thinking about spring and the warmer weather it will bring. Here at Saint Bridget School not only are we thinking about spring, but we are currently in the process of planning our 11^th Annual Golf Tournament. This year’s tournament will be held again at the beautiful Wedgewood Pines Country Club in Stow, Massachusetts and is scheduled for Monday, May 12^th, 2008. Please save the date, more information will be coming soon.
Comedy Night is set for March 28th. The cost is $20.00 per person and seating can be arranged for tables up to 10 people. The invitation flyer was sent home last week. Anyone that would like to volunteer can contact John Kirwan at 508-881-3605.

Good Friday Walk: Monsignor Strahan and Richelle Harrod are organizing the Good Friday Walk again this year. Please encourage your children to join in this holy walk around Framingham.

The walks starts at the parking lot across from the rectory, we then proceed to Union Ave, Lincoln Street, Concord Street and then back “home” via Flagg Drive and the Walnut Street path. We stop and pray at “points of interest” along the way, i.e. Bowditch Field, Marian High School, MetroWest Medical Center, Framingham Police Dept., Memorial Building, St. Stephen’s Church, Concord Street Fire Dept., National Guard, the Framingham District Court House and finally McCarthy Elementary School/Fuller Middle School/ Mass Bay Community College. The walk is approximately 3.2 miles (5K). It is a wonderful way to spend the “quiet hour” from 12 to 1pm on Good Friday with your children. If you have any questions, please feel free to call Richelle Harrod, at 508-879-8158 or email holachelle@yahoo.com .
