Wednesday, Oct. 27^th is the Halloween celebration here at school.  Students are to wear regular school uniforms that day.  Since we have rosary that morning and a specials class that afternoon, we decided that it would be easiest to stay in uniform.  Our classroom parties will be held from 1:45-2:30 that day.  Thank you to those moms who are organizing this event.  The students always love the class parties!

 

Please let me know if you are having trouble checking your child's grades on www.mystudentsprogress.com.  The office sent a password to each family last week.  If you would like me to print a first quarter report card for you, please send me an e-mail and I will print one off.  I was going to try and print one off for everybody, but I thought that would be a waste of paper if you had already seen your child's grades. 

 

Next Saturday, Nov. 3rd, is the First Reconciliation retreat for all second grade students.  At least one parent is required to attend.  Parents and children will be together for part of the morning, and then Father will be talking to the parents for the other part.  Please meet in the church at 10:00AM.  Ms. Hill and I will be there too.  Also, parents, please make sure that you are completing your "homework letter" and sending it to Gladys in the religion office this coming week.

 

Thank you so much for your support of Box Tops for Education.  This quarter's contest ended Thursday and I'm anxious for the results.  I think that our class has a good chance to be the winners thanks to you.
