The 2017-2018 school year is well underway! Our faculty and families have been working together to make this another successful year for our students! We have a number of fun events planned and we hope you will join us!!!
In July, some of our families met at Garden City to enjoy a concert and restaurant night hosted by Corner Bakery. On August 24, a Paint & Vino night was well attended by school families, faculty, and our SSJP parishioners! Be sure to check out our Facebook page to see the wonderful paintings they created!
The 3rd Annual FJVD Car Show is set for September 16 in front of the school. Admission is free and open to ALL! If you are interested in registering your car, please contact us for more information!
On Friday, September 22, the faculty is sponsoring a Back to School BINGO night in the Parish Center. Join us for 10 games of Bingo plus raffles! This event is for ages 21 and older. For more information and to purchase tickets, use the attached order form.
I am happy to announce that both our Silent Auction and the Golf Tournament will return as our major fundraisers for the year. Again, both school and parish families and friends are invited to be part of the festivities! I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Linda DiChristofaro for volunteering to coordinate the Auction, and also, to ask you to consider lending her a hand! For this year's Golf Tournament, Coach Roy Dufour has stepped up to fill the golfing shoes of the McNamara's. Although this event will be in the spring, he is already working on many of the details! We will keep you informed of these and the many other events coming up over the course of the year!
As always, Thank You for your continued support of Father John V. Doyle School!
