In case you missed the last email blast, here's the news:
St. Teresa School 8/10/11 – Volunteers Needed
We hope you’re having a great summer! The Basque Festival will be here before you know it, and we need to start lining up volunteers. We’ll need assistance in many different areas, but right now we especially need to find volunteers to help set-up on Saturday, September 17th, as well as a volunteer to supervise and schedule the soda booth, and we need to schedule the clean-up volunteers. Clean-up volunteers will receive DOUBLE volunteer hours. Please give me a call at 882-2079, or reply to this email if you can help in these areas. Parents will be contacted in the near future to help with the other areas. Thank you so much!

Be on the lookout in the next few weeks for Mrs. Perdomo’s “welcome back” letter and your Basque tickets in the mail. As a reminder, families are obligated to purchase $180 in tickets, so you will be receiving 4 dinner tickets ($100), and $80 worth of raffle tickets. We encourage you to sell as much of this as you can to friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, etc., so that the burden of cost is not all on your family. Of course we encourage everyone to sell more than this, but these are the minimums.

If you would like to get a jump-start on your volunteer hours, and/or if you have difficulty getting to the school to volunteer, we will accept cases (a box of 10 reams of 8 ½ x 11 plain white copy paper, 20 lb or +) of only the following brands of copy paper: Xerox, Boise, HP, Hammermill, or the store brands from OfficeMax, Office Depot, or Staples (it must be their store brand). Our copy machines do not work well with generic or cheaper brands/weight of copy paper, so we will accept only the brands listed above and in full cases. Please do not buy a different brand or weight of paper, as we won’t be able to accept or use it. Families will receive two volunteer hours for each case of paper. Please make sure to bring them directly to the office. We’ll accept cases of these brands of paper throughout the school year. We appreciate the help with our budget, and we hope it will help some of you with your volunteer hours!

The link to student supply lists is on the front page of our website (under St. Teresa School News), and it’s also on the “forms” tab at www.stts.org. Copies are also available in the office.
