Circle of Grace During the week of Nov. 12th-16th during your child’s regular religious education time, the Circle of Grace curriculum will be taught. The aim of this program is to teach children how to be safe, protect themselves, and communicate any potential danger. In the Church’s desire to help keep your children safe, the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City requires that all children and young people participating in religious education in any parish
or Catholic school in the Archdiocese receive this instruction. If you have any questions, concerns or would like to review the curriculum, please contact Mrs. Ison.

Cost is $20 per child. Children may wear Sooner or Cowboy gear to show who they think is the best team in Oklahoma. Hats and athletic clothing are allowed. The team with the most representation gets to hear their fight song on the PA system! Who knows, maybe our principal will don the winning team's jersey? This can be purchased through the Gala website at:

They are actually a new recycling station put together by the Green Team! Students researched common school materials that can be recycled, and created collection baskets for dried up markers, broken crayons (paper removed if possible), foil drink pouches, and foil wrappers like those that go around granola bars. We may add more items over time. Feel free to drop off these items for recycling (dry and crumb-free please). Green Team will sort and send to the appropriate recycling facilities as needed.

Dad's Club Scotch & Cigars Event This Friday! The Dad's Club from the Catholic School of Saint Eugene Parish will hold our annual Scotch and Cigars event on Friday, November 9th in the backyard of the parish rectory. The event starts at 7 pm.
The primary goal of the evening is fun and fellowship with our parish priests and others who can appreciate a nice dram of Scotch and a cigar.
We are asking for a gift of $25 per participant to help cover the costs of the event. Proceeds from the evening will benefit the Principal's Discretionary Fund so our new principal has some extra-budgetary funds to enhance the school and educational experience.
Jeff Simpson from Provisions Fine Beverage Purveyors and Sean Tilly from Sean's Wine and Spirits will be providing a variety of scotches for us to sample.
For those who came last year, I am going to bring a bottle of 2017 favorite -
Glenmorangie Milsean Please go to
steugenes.org/scotch and register today!
Then, please promote the event with your friends! If you are unable to come but would still like to support the Principal's Fund, please go to the same website to make a tax deductible gift.
