On December
1, 2007 St. Mary’s (Barton) students and families rang bells at
Pick’n’Save North in West Bend for the Salvation Army. The St. Mary’s
student council adopted the kettle for the day and encouraged St. Mary’s
students and families to help out. Despite the inclement weather, many
people shared their time and talent (ringing bells, caroling and playing
instruments).
On Tuesday, January 29th,
2008, St. Mary’s School (West Bend) held a Pajama Day in conjunction with
Catholic Schools Week. Students collected pajamas for Kids’ Closet in
Milwaukee and were able to wear pajamas for the day. 120 pajamas and
pajama sets were collected. Pictured are: left to right Josh Breuer,
Imojyn Miller, Christine Unger, Olivia Koenig, Mayela Skowronek, Jessica
Fieweger, and Kenny Costa.

On February 8, 2008,
St. Mary’s West Bend students participated in a school wide Spelling Bee.
Two representatives from fourth through eighth grades were chosen to
particpate. The top two spellers were Kathryn Flynn, fourth grade and
Taylor Berndt, sixth grade. They went on to compete in a Spelling Bee
with top spellers from other area parochial schools on February 12,
2008.

Winners of the St. Mary's
GEO Bee are Austin Yahr and Rebecca Fahney.
