replacements to our playground surface and equipment. Anything
above will go to the THRIVE
tuition assistance funds.
Donations are accepted until October 28, and on that day the
students will
celebrate by wearing their matching T-shirts and participating in a
school-
wide Rosary Walk through the neighbor- hood, praying for our
donors' intentions.
