COOL GIRLS
This year we celebrate 17 years of working with Cool Girls. We serve 250 girls ages 8
to 14 from the low income areas of Atlanta. The best way to describe what we do is to
read what a Cool Gal Volunteer wrote:
As a former teacher the positive development of young lives has always been
very important to me. I have worked extensively with children who have come
from lower socio-economic backgrounds and know the advantages they often
lack that we take for granted.
Cool Girls is a program that helps fill these gaps for some of these disadvan-
taged girls, giving the direction and hope for a better future.
The part that we play in their lives here at St. Peter and St. Paul is truly a spiritual blessing. We provide an op-
portunity for the girls to come here and participate in a fun filled day, while providing much needed clothing and
school supplies to start back to school. That first day back to school might set the tone for a wonderful school
year. Hearing their delighted squeals and seeing the smiles on their faces is truly a wonderful gift in return.
I find myself working on Cool Girls all year long, collecting clothes and things I think they could use or might
like. I look with joyful anticipation toward the next year celebration day hoping that I am making a small differ-
ence in some young girl’s life.
Working with Cool Girls is so Cool!

the Bishops and Deputies have to act on over 400 pieces of proposed legislation, some of which are
quite controversial and have long-term effects. Before the end of the class period, we hope to have

Post Its From Preschool…
submitted by Tracy Gallagher, Director
Spring is here, finally, and we are fast approaching the end to another fantastic, event filled year at
St. Peter & St. Paul Preschool. Enrollment has continued to grow at our Preschool, and this year we
are graduating the largest class of four year olds ever – 39!
In addition to everyday learning, our preschool had several wonderful events throughout the year.
Our Open House and Muffins for Mom are always great kick off activities in the fall, giving families a
chance to reconnect or get acquainted. Our four year olds experience a very special and traditional
Thanksgiving Feast in the parish hall with parents, grandparents, friends, and teachers. Our Christ-
mas Sing-A-Long in December was a magical evening, with our preschoolers putting on quite a per-
formance. The festivities continued with a reception in the parish hall after the performance. Donuts
for Dad is a special treat since we don’t see dads that frequently. Finally, our annual Spaghetti Dinner
was a fabulous evening – combining fundraising with fellowship, and our inaugural silent auction was
wonderfully successful! Our preschool year will culminate with our graduation ceremony on May 14 th.
It is with mixed emotions that we will watch our four year old classes sing their last songs and receive
their “diplomas.” Many of our graduates have been students in our school for four years; others have
joined our program this year. No matter how long they have been with us, we have gotten to know,
understand, and love each of them – we will miss them all! We hope we have instilled in them a love
for learning, and the life skills of sharing and caring.
Big hearty congratulations to our graduates!
