New PE Teacher – Long Term Sub
As soon as we have come to know and love Mrs. Kueber, she is departing on maternity leave beginning December 21. She does not plan to return to SVdP after starting her new family with the birth of Baby Ignatius. We have hired a long-term, full-time substitute teacher for the entire second semester. Mr. Kyle Christensen has diverse teaching experience, and below is a brief introduction from Mr. Christensen:
Gala 2020 – please help us secure Disney Tickets for the Gala
Disney, Service Project & Gala: We need your help!
Our All-School service projects can help SVDP earn up to 20 park hopper passes to Disney that we can include in our 2020 gala. We need parents to visit the site below and simply confirm that your child (and you, if you volunteered) participated in the service project. It takes 30 seconds and Disney and Points of Light/All for Good, their charitable partner, will not use your email address for other purposes. They must verify that SVDP executed a legitimate service project.

Thank you so much for your time to help secure this potentially massive donation for our gala and of course for everyone’s efforts to make our service day a success.
Donation forms for the Gala are in the main office and everything is available online, as well:
