3rd Grade
Newsletter for February 16, 2017
From the Teacher's Pen
Sorry, I am still not quite recovered from all the snow. I can not bear being cold. Please do not think to convince me by saying that snow is pretty as I have lived through Idaho winters, attended school in Pullman (go Cougs!) and also lived & worked at Longmire and Paradise during snow, sleet, blizzard...okay, you probably get it. Did I mention spending the night at Camp Muir? As far as I am concerned, snow is pretty on T.V. Enough about me.
Didn't the 3rd graders sound like an angel choir at last Friday's Mass? They received an outpouring of compliments. Great job 3rd graders and Mrs. Peterson!
Mardi Gras is Coming Up
For those of you new to St. Michael, we do Mardi Gras BIG! There are fun games of skill and chance in most classrooms, a cake walk, face painting, and a chance to win a fish. Each event can take up to 3 tickets to participate and the events are open to everyone, including siblings and parents. Please purchase Mardi Gras tickets before the deadline - see the flyer in the Thursday Envelopes or ask in the office.
