Pius Perks - Land a New Family (K – 8) and
Earn a Sizable Tuition Credit. For every new
student who enrolls, attends, and pays
tuition in 2015-2016, a SPX School family can
earn a $250 tuition credit. For every new
student in the 2015 – 2016 2nd grade, the
tuition credit will be $500. No limit on
number of discounts which can be earned.
Please note: Credit is for “new” students
(that is, not returning ones). SPX families
know we already offer Tulsa’s most
generous “multiple child discount” (more
than 70 of our families benefit). We’ll
prorate the credit when the same new
family enrolls several students. Reference
needed at time of enrollment.

The 8th grade will present the live fairy tale
12 Angry Children on Thursday, May 14th.

will be at 2:00 p.m. for 4th – 7th grade.
Parents are welcome to attend.

As we near the end of the school year, we
ask that each one of you pay close
attention to your child(ren’s) lunch account
balances. Emails have been sent home
letting you know if you owe money. If you
wish to view the breakdown of your child’s
account, please log on to Teacherease,
click on “fees”, then choose “lunch” from
the drop-down feature. We ask that you
please pay off any negative balances. If
your child has money remaining in his/her
account, the amount will automatically roll
over to the next school year.

Sidewalk Sale – Lost and found items will be
laid out on the sidewalk in front of the
school office on Friday, May 15th. Please

something. Items not claimed will be

St. Pius X Youth Spaghetti Dinner

Parents,
Greetings! I hope you are doing well and
enjoying the first week of May! As you may
know, we’re getting down to the wire for our
Spaghetti Dinner this Saturday, May 9th at
6:00 p.m., and I need all the help I can get.
This fundraiser will help defray costs of the
SPX youth mission trip. It is also a great way
to celebrate as a community.
Volunteers are needed to bring in one or
two desserts. We are planning on between
one and two hundred guests. Volunteers
are also needed to set up (beginning at
4:30 p.m.), man tables during dinner and
clean up.
If you can help, please contact Spencer
Moseley at smoseley@spxtulsa,org ASAP.
Despite everyone’s busy schedules, please
remember the bigger picture, and that we
are doing this to bring the youth of St. Pius X
closer to Christ. With this in mind, there is
nothing we can’t do. Thank you all again
and I look forward to seeing you soon! –
Spencer Moseley

Donate Your Old Backpack to Haiti!
If you will get a new backpack for school next year,
Please consider donating your old, gently used backpack to
students at the Kobonal Haiti Mission’s Catholic School.
There will be a collection of backpacks near the end of the
school year. Your old backpack will be a great blessing to a
Catholic school student in Haiti!
The Kobonal Haiti Mission schools serve over 1,200 Haitian children living in rural
Hinche, Haiti. Many of these children walk over a mile to and from school each
day. A backpack to carry their books would make their trip a little easier.
Thank You! The St. Anne Parish Haiti Mission Team
