Dear Parents, 

We are currently at about 59% of the total amount needed for our new playground, up from 53% last week! Additionally, don't forget that we have a matching campaign running through the end of April from two private donors who are willing to match up to $30,000 total. We are enormously grateful to all who have donated! If you would like to learn more or give to this exciting new addition at St. Charles, please visit our website. Our students and staff thank you for your support! 

Following His plan,
Principal Garvey

Safe Environment Week: Safe Environment Week will be observed from April 24-30 at St. Charles and throughout the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. Archbishop Listecki's Proclamation highlights the critical issue of keeping our children safe. Teachers will be communicating the specific lesson they will teach from the Archdiocese's Circle of Grace program about the importance of physical and emotional safety. Together we pray for the parents, teachers, catechists, and all who work with children and young people; that they may be faithful in their responsibility to protect those entrusted to them by providing safe environments for our children to live, learn, and grow. We pray to the Lord.
