Weekly News

A Time to be Thankful:

 I hope you and your family had a wonderful break and an opportunity to reflect our many blessings.  STUCO lead our chapel this past week and gave a great witness on how we can give thanks to God for the little things as well as the big things.  Students donated a wealth of food to provide for the seminarian Thanksgiving meals and to help stock their food pantry.

Thanks to you for helping celebrate my birthday as well.  I look forward to spending the Together We're Better gift certificate.

Veterans Day Blogs

Click the Student Blog tab above to follow the link to our Veterans' Day Blog entries.  Note - you may login as a guest (password: bobcats) and click "Go to Class Blogs".  Students love to receive comments. Consider commenting on your own child's blog and at least one classmate.  No last names, please!

Science

Friday in Science, students completed a lab where they looked at the skin of an onion with microscopes.  Next, students got creative with what they examined.  They made slides with hair, an eye lash, some pencil shavings, and more onions.




Advent Service - Dec. 5  10:00 A.M. and 7:00 P.M.

I want to keep the date in front of you as the Advent Service is less than 2 weeks away.  Please email me with any questions you have.  This week we will finalize memorization and begin microphone practice.  Dress for that evening will be school dress or nicer unless your child has a costumed part. 

Educators' Conference

Teachers had a wonderful two days at our Educators Conference.  The focus of our experience was Professional Learning Communities, which - it a nutshell - is linking teachers together to share resources.  I met some fantastic teachers from around the state who shared terrific teaching ideas, project ideas, and web resources.  It was an uplifting experience and I thank PTL for making this professional development experience possible.
