Dear Alumni and supporters of St Helena’s
School
The past year has provided its share of excitement for St Helena’s School.
In February 2007, St Helena’s choose to
move forward with supporting the school after the effort to merge with Holy
Rosary was shelved. At the same time, St Helena’s announced its intention to open a pre school
for 3 yr and 4 yr olds. Enrollment is up
from 157 in 2007 to 180 for the coming 2008 school year. Additionally, St Helena’s
is welcoming Patricia Quinter as the new principal. Pat has over 15 years experience as principal
in the Philadelphia
Catholic School
District – Welcome Pat!
While most Catholic school enrollments are declining, St Helena’s School has seen recent growth aided in part
by the opening of the pre-school. The
school continues to provide a great student to teacher ratio and superior
curriculum second to none that ensures the continued success of our
graduates.
St Helena’s Elementary School has been serving the North Wilmington / Bellefonte area for over 59
years. St Helena’s
is planning a 60th anniversary reunion scheduled tentatively for the
spring 2009. Stay tuned for details and
mark your calendars!!!!!
Additionally, we would like to provide an open invitation to
all our Alumni and supporters to participate in the 2nd annual St Helena’s Golf outing scheduled for October 8,
2007. Details can be found on the web
site www.sainthelenas.org or you can call 302-762-5230. If you can’t play, stop by at 5pm and join
the group for a beverage and dinner. We
are all also looking for sponsors or volunteers to help with the event.
Please review the enclosed information card which asks for
updated information about you or someone you know that attended St Helena’s in the past.
St Helena’s is trying to gather these
names so that we can keep you informed about current and upcoming events. You can also submit you information at www.sainthelenas.org under the Alumni
section
St Helena’s Alumni Association
will be providing additional material that outlines school events and
milestones in the coming months.
Our prayers and best wishes to you and your loved ones.
Sincerely,
