Week of 12/5

We practiced place value last week and got to write on our desks!


Dear Parents,

I hope you all had a nice weekend! We have another busy week here with the Christmas Concert and no school on Thursday!  Here are your reminders for the week:

- Tuesday night will be the K-4 Christmas Concert! The kids should wear their Sunday/Christmas best. Please no jeans. Please have your child arrive to church by 6:45pm. They can go right to their pew where we have been practicing. After the performance, you can pick them up from their pew! Looking forward to seeing everyone there!       

- No school on Thursday due to the Holy Day! There is a pizza party after the 12:10 pm Mass Thursday. You can sign up HERE if you would like to attend! 

- There will be a spelling and reading test on Friday. The spelling words are more difficult with the long vowel patterns so please be sure to study! 

- We have our Monthly Mass on Friday at 9:00am! All are welcome!

Our second field is quickly approaching! We will be bowling at Devon Lanes with our 8th grade buddies on Wednesday, December 21st! Please note that a pizza lunch is included in the price so you do not have to order lunch on Wednesday. We need 5 chaperones for this trip. If you are interested, please email me and I will pick out of a hat next week! Sorry, no younger siblings are welcome on this trip! If you could have the permission form and payment completed by Friday, December 16th that would be great!

- Report cards will be given out next week.

Have a great week!
