Bits & Pieces
THANK YOU!  Halloween here at St. Nicholas was lots of fun.  Thanks to our 
Home & School president, Kathy Arrigo, Susan DiPietro, Audree Derago and 
Susan Longo board members and many parent volunteers.  God bless you for 
your time and hard work.
Special thanks to Kathy Arrigo and Theresa Anastasio who worked hard to get 
candy and gifts donated.

The RELIGIOUS TEACHERS FILIPPINI are very grateful and personally thank all 
of the parents who voluntarily participated in the Christmas Fund Raiser for 
the benefit of our Senior Sisters.  Your kindness and generosity are very 
much appreciated.

EMERGENCY CLOSING – When the weather is inclement and you are not certain if 
school will be in session, you are asked to listen to the radio station KYW 
(1060 AM).  PLEASE DO NOT CALL THE SCHOOL, CONVENT OR RECTORY.

Children should not arrive at school before 8:00 A.M. or before 12:35 P.M.  
The school does not assume responsibility for children before these times, 
even on days of inclement weather.  Please cooperate for the safety of the 
children.

EMERGENCY CARDS – Back in September, 2008 Emergency Cards were sent home 
with the oldest child in each family requesting that you check all 
information on the card, and make any necessary changes.  We are running 
into a problem with some of the phone numbers that were given to us.  If you 
have a change in Address, Phone or Emergency Numbers, please contact the 
school office with the new information. Also, if you have a Cell Number that 
is not on file in the office, we ask that you send the information into 
school for our records.
