Sarah Casavechia
Good Afternoon!
We are looking forward to an evening of bingo and laughs. Thank you to all who were able to make it work in their schedule to attend or volunteer.
Teacher Appreciation
You truly spoiled us! Thank you for a wonderful week! The coffee, breakfast, treats, and kind messages made us feel so appreciated. A special thank you to SAPO and the committee chairs for organizing such a thoughtful celebration.
Earth Friendly Travel Day
Join us in celebrating Earth Friendly Travel Day on Wednesday, April 22! Students are encouraged to walk, bike, scooter, take the CTA, or carpool to school as a way to care for our planet and reduce pollution. Bikes and scooters can be stored in the gym. As a reward, students who participate may come to school out of uniform on Friday, April 24. Let’s work together to make a positive impact!
Weather Bug
The Weather Bug has returned! Thanks to a very generous donor, a new Weather Bug has been installed at Saint Andrew School. The Weather Bug is a weather monitoring system that includes a small outdoor station installed atop Saint Andrew School. It collects real-time data such as temperature, wind speed, humidity, and rainfall. This means our students and community can access accurate, up-to-the-minute weather conditions right from our campus. It’s also a great educational tool, helping students explore science concepts and better understand weather patterns in a hands-on way. Saint Andrew Weather Bug
Yearbook
Our yearbook club and their sponsors have been hard at work! 25-26 yearbooks are on sale now until April 28. Order your keepsakes here.
Art Walk Volunteers
On Tuesday, May 5 at 6 PM, our school will be transformed into an art gallery. This gallery will showcase some of the hottest up-and-coming artists in the K–8 art world. Would you like to help us prepare for this do-not-miss event? Art Walk Volunteers
To Do
