Lisa and Johnny are siblings who spend a summer at the pool. They have to wear floaties since they can’t swim. So they sign up for swim class together. Read along as Lisa and Johnny go on their journey through learning to swim.
They both encounter successes and setbacks along the way. Their different mindsets show how they handle these situations. The result is drastically different!
Maverick Volleyball Tournament: Spikes Under The Lights
In the end, despite spending significant energy on concocting a complex bracket and having its spiritual leadership wing (Fr. Will and Br. Sean) depart suddenly and prematurely for "recreation," STAFF INFECTION emerged victorious. Mr. Guerra emerged from no less than 3 naps or possibly deep meditations on the bleachers to lead the young lads (Mr. Casey, AKA "Messi Kiraly," Mr. Stalder, and Mr. Daily) to victory.
Thanks to all who came out. As a consequence, all those who came earned a FREE DRESS day for this Monday.
WHAT COLD? MAVERICKS TRAVEL TO DEVINE ACRES FARMS FOR FUN AND AMAZING LEARNING!
APPARENTLY THE GROWN-UPS HAD JUST AS MUCH FUN!
STILL, THE STUDENTS FOUND TIME FOR SOME HARD WORK AND EVEN HARDER SLEEP!
