Student Spotlight
Matthew M. in 3rd grade is our Student Spotlight this week. He is a true model of a student who takes
his faith seriously. His teacher observed him at Mass recently and
noticed how prayerful and respectful he was throughout liturgy, especially
during the Consecration. This student was not aware that he was
being observed. The teacher commends him for doing what is right even when he thought the
teacher was not looking.

The Soles for Souls shoe drive began April 3, 2017.
This shoe drive is sponsored by the St. Gregory the Great Religion Club, in partnership with Brighton Collectibles. Each homeroom is asked to
collect gently used or new shoes for the Soles 4 Souls organization. The homeroom with the most shoes collected will receive a Pizza Party. Last year, our great school collected 1500 pairs of shoes to help those in
need. All shoes must be turned in to the homeroom teacher. Each week, a Religion Club member will collect the shoes and store them
until they are prepared for shipment. It is important that all bags are marked with the homeroom teachers name. The deadline for turning in
shoes is May 15th. Thank you in advance for your support.
St. Gregory the Great Catholic School Summer Camps Available!
