Dear Parents,
This Friday we will have our Mass for the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. Students are allowed to bring their pet to be blessed by Father during the Mass; however parents MUST take the pet back home right after Mass. We will also have 12:00 dismissal that day. I plan to have the first weekly Religion quiz this week but need to work out with the other teachers which day is possible so students don't have too many quizzes scheduled the same day. Please have students review all Religion notes in the notebook as well as definitions copied in the notebook from the blog.
THIS WEEK ALL THIRD AND FOURTH GRADE STUDENTS RECEIVED A NEW GRAMMAR WORKSHOP BOOK. PLEASE HAVE IT COVERED. NO ONE MAY WRITE IN IT SINCE IT WILL BE COLLECTED AND USED NEXT YEAR! I WILL BE RETURNING ALL CLASSWORK AND HOMEWORK THIS WEEK. WRITING SAMLES MUST BE KEPT IN PORTFOILIOS THAT PARENTS MAY SEE WHEN THEY SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE A TEACHER.
