Happy All Saints Day!
The kids did a wonderful job today with their parade. Special thanks to Mrs.Vollmer and the 8th grade for orchestrating the Tour of Saints.

I will be off campus on Monday and Tuesday for our annual Archdiocesan Principal's retreat and PD. The office will know how to get me if needed.

There are lots of exciting things beginning to be planned, the big ones are the Sunman Celebrate the Season parade on Nov 22 and our 80's dance on Feb 1st. If you can help with either, please let me know.

Good luck to our 5/6th grade basketball teams as their season starts this week!

Have a wonderful crisp weekend!

Just a reminder as cold and flu season approaches...

Please be sure to communicate with the office if your child will not be in school and how homework should get home.
If your child misses a day of school, they have one extra day per missed day to make-up work.
After 10 absences in one school year, a doctor's note is required for every absence after in order for it to be an excused absence and make-up work accepted.
A student must be in school for all class periods in order to participate in extracurricular activities. Medical appointments are the exception if a note from the doctor is brought to school.
Do not send a child to school with a fever or if he/she is physically sick.
Students will be sent home if they have a fever over 100 or they are spewing bodily fluids.

SGOs: WHAT ARE THEY?HOW DO THEY BENEFIT ST. NICHOLAS? HOW CAN THEY BENEFIT ME THIS YEAR END?
Indiana’s Tax Credit Scholarship program was created in 2009 as a way to give families who meet income guidelines an opportunity to send their child(ren) to a participating private school like St. Nicholas.
By St. Nicholas School participating, we have the opportunity to provide a Catholic education to children and families who might otherwise have struggled to afford such an option.However, in order to offer students an opportunity to attend the school through this program, funding must be made available by individual donors or corporations who are committed to providing children a choice for the type of education received.By utilizing the Tax Credit Scholarship, all donations are eligible for a 50% state Tax Credit.These scholarships are different from Indiana Choice Scholarship Voucher program, which allows eligible families to redirect their child’s education funding from the state to be used as tuition at a participating private school.Here are some quick facts about SGOs:
¨Those with an Indiana tax liability will receive a 50% credit against their taxes.
¨Donors may be eligible for up to a 35% federal tax deduction(donors should consult their tax advisor).
¨An individual or corporation can donate by cash, check, stock/securities or credit/debit card.
¨There are no limits on how much or how often a donor can contribute.
¨Unused tax credit may be carried forward for up to nine years.No refunds are available for unused credits.
¨Donors may direct their donation to fund scholarships at a specific school but not for a specific student.
¨Program caps:The total amount of tax credits is $30 million for fiscal year 2019-20.Since there is a 50% tax credit given to the donor, $15 million is available for donor gifts to schools which began July 1, 2019.
