8th Grade Update
February 9, 2018
Dear 8th Grade Students and Families,
This month we celebrate Saint Valentine's Day, Black History Month, Vietnamese New Year, and more. Although each of these is unique and special in their own way, they do share one common thread: love. And that's exactly what 8th grade will be focusing on.
Earlier this week, we reflected on acts of love we've recently done as well as acts of love we'd like to do. In the coming weeks, let's keep finding opportunities to spread the love and make our community even stronger and more beautiful!
We hope to see 8th grade parents at Ash Wednesday Mass. :)
Love,
Ms. K

High School Acceptances
We're approaching the time of year when high schools begin to send out their admissions letters. This can be a very stressful time - just remember that you will end up at a school where you'll be able to follow your own unique path to success! As you hear back from schools, I encourage you to fill us in so that we can celebrate you. Let's all model grace, dignity, and patience as we wait to hear back!
Getting to Know Javier Zamora
