The St. Vincent de Paul Food Drive begins Thursday, November 21 when grocery bags are delivered to all students. Red containers will be along the carline and at the school office until Wednesday, November 27 when we leave for the Thanksgiving Break. Please fill the bags with non-perishables to make Christmas special for the many people in Ventura County who need our help.

The Middle School Leadership Committee asks for two free dress days to raise funds to send to Missionary Childhood Association to support those harmed by Typhoon Haiyan that has struck the very heart of the Philippines. Please be generous!

Coach Martin, our longtime football and basketball coach, asks us to support the Oxnard PAL (Police Activities League) as it provides meals for the homeless and needy during the holidays. He would like us to bring water, juices, and/or sports drinks on Thirsty Thursdays now through December 19. As a coach, hydration has great value to him, and he would like to see all who attend the provided holiday meals leaving with fluids to continue to sustain them.
