Congrats and Good Luck to Freshman Gymnast Kevin Purdom who qualified for STATE this weekend in all-around, parallel bars, high bar, vault, floor and pommel horse. He will be competing in the individual events, and all around competition on Saturday May 14th at Lincoln Way East in Frankfort. Preliminary competition begins at 11:30am. Top 10 gymnasts in each event will move on to compete in the finals at 6:30pm that evening.Good Luck Kevin!! 
 
Thanks to all who supported the Boys' Volleyball "Feed the Need" food drive. The People's Resource Center was overwhelmed with gratitude for all the food that was donated. What a great thing to witness two communities coming together to help those less unfortunate. 
 
Tomorrow we will pack food for Feed My Starving Children to send to those in Haiti. Once again we are so lucky to be a part of such a wonderful, caring community. Reminder, all workers need to wear close toed shoes.
 
Good Luck to the Class of 2010 as they graduate this weekend. Good luck to the Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen as they prepare for finals week.
 
Go Spartans!

Uniform Resale provides Financial Assistance
 
It's a two-fer!!!!  By donating uniforms you can no longer use, you declutter your closets and help provide financial assistance for a student.  Last school year's donations provided assistance for five St. Francis families!  Beginning on May 10th we will accept clean, gently used uniforms that you have either outgrown, never used, or just won't need in college. Collection bins will be located in the hallways through June 11th. The uniform resale will be held during the book test on July 6th. For questions, please contact Gail Talley,
815-439-8278
