Mrs. Dasaro will serve as the Moderator of the Aquinas Club which will meet on Mondays.  The Aquinas Club is an educational enrichment program for students in grades  6, 7, 8 who maintain an 85% and above in reading and math.  Students will be invited to attend if eligible.  Mrs. Glodowski will moderate the yearbook and school newsletter, as well as Student Council, with Mrs. Dasaro as co-moderator for some sessions. Students in grade 8 will be informed of these clubs after Mrs. Glodowski returns on November 2, 2012.

 I would like to thank our faculty members for generously giving of their time to serve as moderators of these clubs.   They are dedicated to serving the students of St. Francis Xavier School despite their busy schedules of caring for their families and attending professional development classes.  We are truly blessed to have such a devoted faculty.
