Hope you are having a SUPER week! Just a few things to share!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
We will be hosting "Hard As Nails" for our middle schoolers on Thursday, October 3 at 1:45PM - Check it out at Hard As Nails for more info on this! We have also invited our other Catholic middle schools and home schoolers to join us! We will run an assembly day schedule that day!
Answer Those Questioning Faces! :)
Just a reminder that we have MANY new families and along with that about 5 families with moms and dads that ONLY speak Spanish. Please make sure if you see them looking lost or maybe having a question that you stop and help. They are learning all the ins and outs of our school right along with their children! Please help them through the learning process! :) Patience goes a long way in building trust and really helps with retention of students each year!
EXCESSIVE TARDY NOTES SENT OUT
Please know I am very aware of how tardy students are a disruption to your classes. So, please know I have sent out excessive tardy notifications to all students that have 6 or more tardies as well as expressed in the COLT this week the ramifications of students being tardy! I will continue to check this regularly but please let me know if you have students you have concerns with related to tardies or absences! Thanks!
Want to adopt a priest for your class?
This consists of cards, invites to special events, etc.! Please see Dawn for a list of available priests!
FLU SHOT CLINIC
The Diocese is offering a free FLU shot clinic on October 9 from 1:30-4:30 at the Chancery for the whole family! Please see the email sent on this for more info!
