Dear Parents,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with family and friends!
Today, we said farewell to Ms. Marrinan, our 4th grade teacher. Ms. Marrinan and her husband are relocating to Abu Dhabi in December. We wish her all the best and thank her for being a wonderful teacher to our students!
During our 1st quarter honors assembly this week, honors were given to students in grades 2-8 who achieved 1st and 2nd honors. A special growth mindset award was also given to students who demonstrated the NED message- Never give up, Encourage others, and Do your best! Students were also encouraged to create a goal for themselves for 2nd quarter. By creating their own goals, students take responsibility and ownership of their learning. What will be your child's goal this quarter?
Our Holiday events are approaching fast. A special newsletter was sent on Monday with information about all our upcoming events. You can also find all the information below.
Advent begins this Sunday. We will celebrate Mass together as a school on Wednesday at 10am. All are welcome.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Ms. Carone
Today a Reader, Tomorrow a Leader
Earlier, I mentioned it's important for students to set goals for themselves. A goal for independent reading at home is something you and your child can create together. This article is geared towards teachers, but there are some great tips for parents such as why set a reading goal? You could even create your own reading goal sheet at home with your child!
