"teaches as Jesus did" With love, care, and discipline,

Centering on the Eucharist, and focusing on students:

Our gifts and our future.

September 29, 2023

We finished off an amazing week with a fantastic Virtue assembly on "Love & Kindness" from our 1st graders! Our third grade did a fun egg dropping experiment with a little help from Mr. Justin & Mr. Carroll. 8th enjoyed using our science lab while working on a mineral identification lab. Preschool 4's and Kindergarten Prep went on a field trip to the apple orchard today, and it was a beautiful day for it! Lastly, don't forget to send your cans in! We are grateful to the families who have donated to our canned drive so far, we are collecting until October 19th!

Many Blessings,

Mrs. G
