Week of September 16, 2019

Please Note

- Be sure to check out the pictures from our "Book Club" that we had on Friday when we met our 8th grade buddies. The kids discussed their summer reading books and made a craft to go with it. It was a great time!

- Journals should be decorated, covered and returned to school by Friday, September 20th.

 - We will have our first school Mass on Wednesday at 9:00am. All are welcome!  No Dress Downs on mass days please.

 - We will have our first reading test on the story "Jack and the Wolf" this Friday. I will read all of the questions with them for the first few tests. The reader will be sent home this week so you can read and review the story at home.  Both the sight words and spelling words are included in the test.

 - Please email me if you have any questions!
