A Note from Our Home & School President!
As the school year wraps up, we want to take a moment to say what a marvelous year it has been! Home and School is so grateful for everyone who has volunteered, donated, and supported our school and community—thank you!
We still have one more volunteer opportunity available before the year ends, as well as a few open committee positions for the upcoming year. We’d absolutely love to have you join us! If you’re interested or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
Blessings,

Summer Tutoring at St. Charles
Jen Gasik – Is your student struggling with math or reading/spelling concepts? Do you want your student/s to have a weekly “brush up” on skills throughout the summer? Do you have a small group of student friends who would like to have a summer book club or a 6-8 week introduction to playing the piano? I am available for many fun learning opportunities this summer! Scheduling flexible. Please email jgasik@stchbs.org for more info!
Sheyenne Gehlhausen – I am one of the 4th grade teachers at St. Charles and will be graduating in May with my master’s in reading education from the University of St. Thomas. If you have a student who needs extra math/reading help, or perhaps even enrichment in these areas, I will be available for tutoring sessions at St. Charles this summer, starting in June. Please reach out for scheduling and more information at sgehlhausen@stchbs.org.
Victoria Paine – Including my time here at St. Charles, I have been teaching middle school for over 20 years. I bring the skills of a reading specialist in addition to my regular work with any English subject matter (reading, writing, grammar, spelling). I will tutor students in 4th grade and above. I am available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday during the day. Both short-term help on summer reading projects and long-term goals to improve reading are possible. If you are interested in booking a time slot or would like more information, please contact me at vpaine@stchbs.org.
Jeanne Sharp – I am a licensed middle school math teacher, and I would be available to work with 6th – 8th grade students looking for some math tutoring. I am available on Tuesdays. Please feel free to reach out to me by email at jsharp@stchbs.org.
