Packets are available in the office. YEARBOOK NEWS: The St. Anne's Yearbook Committee is putting together the 2016-2017 school yearbook.

Let's show our Panther Pride and make it a great YEARBOOK! Here is the link http://bit.ly/stannesybphotos for you to upload, attach, or e-mail pictures. Thank you for your help and support in building our yearbook full of great memories! SOS HOUR TOTALS: If your family’s slip does not reflect the hours that you have worked, it may be due to the fact that your hours have not been reported to us yet. Everyone needs to fill out an SOS Hours Form in order for the hours to be recorded, (this includes Bingo callers, Bingo Team Leaders, SAC members, Parent Club Board members, Room Mothers, Harvest Fest Committee members, Art volunteers, etc.) and anyone doing volunteer work. We have a person recording these hours and this person does not know what every parent volunteer does. SOS Hour Forms are available in the office. ST.
