St. Mary's School

We look forward to seeing you at our Night of Knights Auction on Saturday, staring at 4:00! Remember you must be 21 years of age or older to attend! Here's a few things you need to know: 1. Pre-register by noon on Saturday at https://one.bidpal.net/smsnok - it will save you $2! 2. Bring some cash for fun-filled raffles (everything else you can charge!), 3. Bring your charged smart device to participate in the Silent Auction's online bidding, 4. Be ready for a GREAT time!

4 SHOC representatives (3 of them were our alumni - yay!) talked with our 7th graders about making good choices and standing up for what is right. They talked about a wide variety of topics, but one of the eye-opening things discussed was Vaping because it is a growing epidemic in schools. Researchers are quickly finding that vaping may be more lethal than smoking. Did you know Cytotoxic chemicals are in most of the "fruit" "fun" smelling flavors that attract kids and are actually the worst for your health?

At St. Mary's we very much take pride in the way our alumni thrive and get involved at OHS. Here's just another example of alumni excellence! Congratulations to all newly inducted and current National Honor Society members, who we are lucky enough to call our alumni...From the top: Evan P., Maggie N., Ryan K., Gabe R, Ashwini M, Leah T., Laura G., Nicole S., Zach L., Emma M., Madi B., Tea B., John P.

On Friday around 85 St. Mary's School 5th-8th graders participated in "Baby Ball". It has become a fun tradition and is always something students look forward to. They raised $1038, with all proceeds being donated to Birthright of Owatonna.

Congratulations to 7th grader Caleb and 8th grader Mya for being this week's Shining Knights. Both have strong work ethics and great leadership skills.
