ALUMNI HONOR SISTER
THERESA MARY O.P.
Our last Reunion for the St. Helena
School graduates of the 70's, 80's and 90's held on October 15, 2010
honored the last three Sparkill Dominican Sisters who were principals of
St. Helena's school. Sister Patricia Ann Murtha O.P. and Sister Mary
Grey O.P. were able to be with us on that evening and were honored with
a plaque of recognition. Sister Theresa Mary McPartland O.P. was not
able to be with us because of family obligations. Therefore "St.
Helena's" went to Sister Theresa Mary ! On March
7, we presented Sister Theresa with
her plaque of recognition at St.
John Chrysostom School where she is now working in the School Office.

Pictured here are (left to right)

SPONSORSHIP
PROGRAM
We are blessed each year to have some dedicated alumni and friends who
are assisting some deserving children
in our school. The sponsor offers to pay all or part of the
tuition for a child whose family circumstances would otherwise prevent
him or her from attending our school. The cost of tuition is becoming
greater and greater and many families find it impossible to handle. Our
Sponsorship Program helps these families to continue the Catholic
education of their children. Some sponsors choose to have contact with
the child; others choose to remain anonymous. In some cases, through the
Matching Gift Program, a sponsor's contribution for tuition actually
makes it possible for two children to continue in our school.
If you wish to become
a sponsor, please indicate this on the enclosed envelope. Full
sponsorship is $3200; partial is $1600. If you would like to discuss
this program, please contact Mr. Richard Meller, Principal, at (718)
892-3234.
Your sponsorship truly makes a difference!
