Week of 4/3

Dear Parents,

This is our last full week before Easter Break! Spring fever is beginning to set in. I'm sure most of you heard that Mr. Tosti stopped by last week to give us some reminders of how we are to treat other people and how we are to play kindly and fairly at recess. It was a good reminder for the kids and I know we will end the year on a great note! We have a busy week so here are your reminders:

- Spring uniforms start today! Please make sure all sweatshirts and coats etc are labeled with your child's name.

- Math test on Time on Wednesday. Please review telling time to the hour and half hour.

- Dress Down Day on Wednesday for Peter's Place. Please send in $1.00 to dress down.

- Religion test on Chapter 15 on Friday. A study guide will be sent home.

- The 8th Grade is putting on the Living Stations on Friday at 7:00pm and again on Tuesday (4/11) at 12:15pm. If you have never been, it is truly a moving experience.

- An email and flyer were sent home about the 8th Grade Bake Sale. If you would like to donate a baked good you can drop them off at the Parish Center on Friday or Saturday between 1-3pm. They will be selling the treats after the masses on Saturday and Sunday. Thanks for your help and support!
