Principal Janet Wilson from St. Matthew Catholic School, Principal Dana Martin from Holy Ghost Catholic School, Principal Dr. Cheryl Blue of St. Columbkille Catholic School and Principal Lynn Schultz from St. Bernadette Catholic School coordinated the four schools to come together for a common lenten project helping the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry.
Students from all four schools collected items like school supplies, books, toothbrushes, shampoos, and other items for families who need them.
In addition, stuffed animals were collected to be given to the police in Papillion, La Vista and Bellevue so the officers can give them to children in times of stress.
The 8th grade students from all four schools gathered at St. Columbkille yesterday to sort these items for families. Each student got a bag and collected items from each of the areas.
These were given to the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry.
Then the students had snacks.
It was good for the students to meet people from other schools. They were able to talk about a variety of things such as comparing school lunches and High School plans.
Then everyone lined up for a group picture.
Thank you for coming together and helping those in need!
