Last May, St. Matthew held an inaugural golf tournament. The event served as both fundraiser and community builder. Our first year was a success and we are looking to build on that going forward. Our second annual tournament will be on Saturday, May 20. 2017, at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club on the Ghost Creek Course. We invite golfers from inside and out of our community to come sign up to participate in our tournament and help support our school. Tell your friends about our event and bring them out to play. You can sign up online HERE.
We are also looking for sponsors for this event. If you own a local business, we would love to have your company advertise at the tournament. Sponsorships begin at $100 to sponsor a hole and there are other levels that include participation in the tournament. We are currently seeking a hole-in-one and a golf ball sponsor. If you are interested in sponsorship, contact Joe Gallardo at golf@stmatthewschoolhillsboro.org
For up to date information about the tournament connect with us on Facebook. You can find our Facebook page HERE. Be sure to like our page and share it with your friends. We hope to see you at the tournament!
For the remainder of the school year we have four ducklings that have joined the students here at St. Matthew. We have four female buff ducks that were born on April 3rd that arrived in Mr. Hernandez's class just a couple days after they hatched and they growing fast! This trimester's gardening elective will be raising the ducks in the classroom and the garden. The class will be discussing the beneļ¬ts of ducks in the garden as a useful way to control pests, as well as the free fertilizer they provide. Feel free to swing by the 6th grade classroom before or after school to say hi to the ladies as the grow.
