Library Books
Students please look for library books and
return them to the school library. All library books need to be returned before
your child's report card is mailed.
Used Book Sale
On Wednesday, June 23rd, the last day of school
after mass, you can purchase "new" books for your child to read over the summer.
Paperback books are $.50 and hardback books are a $1. All money goes to the
school libraries to buy new books. But really this is a great way for your child
to get a jump on their summer reading!
Used Uniform Sale
It’s
that time of year
again. We will be
having the Used Uniform
Sale on the last day of
school, Wednesday, June
23, downstairs in the
church hall after mass.
If you have any items
that you would like to
sell, please bring them
to school on Wednesday,
June 23 to the lower
parking lot after
drop-off. Jenny Bluett
will be available to
pick-up your items.
Please have all items
labeled with your family
name, price and payment
envelope attached. The
sale will begin after
mass is dismissed.
If you
still need last minute
volunteer hours, help is
needed for set-up and
clean-up. Please
contact Jenny Bluett at
mauikini@aol.com.
Blessings to All our
Students, Families and
Staff
As we close another wonderful school year at
St. Joseph School we look back and thank our Lord and Savior for the many
blessings he has bestowed on us! From the H1N1 virus, the long awaited
accreditation process and all the challenges life brings us we all came out
stronger, wiser and thankful for each other and most importantly our Risen
Christ. As Ecclesiastes Chapter 3:1 reminds us “There is an appointed time for
everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens.” So at this appointed
time our prayer and hope for all our students, families and staff is for a safe,
healthy and very happy summer vacation. May your journeys be blessed with sun
and good fortune until we meet again in the fall.
GOING, GOING GONE!
The lost and found will be emptied for the last
time this Friday, June 18th at both campuses. All unclaimed items will be
donated to the Issaquah Food Bank and any uniform pieces will be sold at the
used uniform sale on Wednesday, June 23rd after mass.

needs the support of our amazing ministers during
the summer months. Please take a moment to sign-up

Gathering Space table next to the Reconciliation
Room door. We hope this voluntary option will
provide flexibility for you. You may even want to
