Next Monday and Tuesday our kiddos will have their out of uniform days for their growth with MAP testing!
Next Thursday, May 8th @ 10:00 we will be celebrating Mass as a whole school. This is our May Crowning Mass and is run by the 2nd grade class. We are asking that your child wear their Communion outfit/dress/Sunday Best to school on Thursday. They can bring their PE uniforms to change back into after Mass. Please bring a bag labeled with your kiddos name as well as labeled clothes to change into. We will have snack before Mass-please DO NOT PACK A MESSY ONE!
As we are soon approaching the First Communion season, we wanted to send out a document for you to fill out. As a second grade team we try to make as many First Communions as possible, and would love to know the date, time, and location your child is receiving theirs at! If you could take some time to fill out this form.
We are in Operation Homestretch for the Building the Faith, Building the Future Capital Campaign. The kick off will be on Wednesday at morning prayer, but we are in the final stretch of the campaign to build our beautiful new cafeteria, playground and renovate the gym and stage.
Flowers for Mary - During the month of May we celebrate Mary! We ask that your child bring in one (1) flower for Mary as a way to honor her, each class will have a space in the classroom to place the flowers. It doesn’t have to be a whole bouquet from the store! Your child can pick a flower from outside or get creative and make a paper flower at home!
