Congratulations to our first graduating class!

Congratulations to our 2007-2008 seventh grade class, who graduated on June 5th at Immaculate Conception Church.  The Good Shepherd School Board of Directors, faculty, and staff are very proud of these students’ accomplishments and wish them continued success as they begin high school.  We deeply appreciate all of our benefactors and volunteers who helped make this exciting day a reality.

 

2008 Fall Gala

I am very excited to announce that The Good Shepherd School will host our annual Fall Gala on Friday, October 10, 2008 at the Warehouse District’s Hampton Inn & Suites, 1201 Convention Center Blvd.  Beginning at 7:30pm, Joel Catering will serve a delicious buffet, and The Last Straws will entertain throughout the evening.  We will also feature a table of auction items and an inspiring performance by The Good Shepherd School Choir.  Hotel rooms may be reserved at a special rate if booked by September 15th.

I hope you will support The Good Shepherd School by becoming a special donor for the Fall Gala.  As a special donor, your name will be listed on the invitation, which will be mailed to over 2,500 contributors and friends of Good Shepherd.  Your name will also be listed in the program for the event if you return the following donor card by August 15th.

Please call (504) 598-9399 for more information or to purchase tickets.

On behalf of the children of The Good Shepherd School, I thank you and look forward to seeing you at the Fall Gala.

Sincerely,

Kathy Neilson
