Every Friday Note
October 14, 2022
Weekly Update
Fall Break is next week. The school office will be closed Monday thru Friday and will reopen on Monday, October 24th.
It's been another exciting week at Saint Lawrence! Obviously, there has been a lot of excitement about Fall Break coming up, but lots of learning continues to take place in our classrooms. This week we had the Pre-K trip to Tuttle Farms and the 8th grade High School Placement Exam among many other exciting things.
We are about to enter the part of the school year that flies by the fastest. After Fall Break, we have just a few short weeks before Thanksgiving and then just a few short weeks until Christmas! With so much anticipation and excitement for the holidays, it really does feel like it is gone in the blink of an eye. This makes it so important to stay on our students diligently to make sure that they do not fall behind at the beginning of the 2nd quarter, because it will be over before you know it! Now the 3rd quarter on the other hand, that is a different story for a different day!
We do continue to have some food and beverages from outside being brought in to the school at breakfast time. As I said last week, we can really use your help with this. There are several issues that are starting to develop. Not only is it making a mess when it spills on the carpet, but several times teachers have heard students "lording it over" others with the older students that "my mom has the money to buy me Starbucks and yours doesn't". You are certainly welcome to make the stop for those items on the way to school, I am just asking that they are finished prior to exiting the vehicles and being brought into the building.

Also, we need a couple of parents to help greet at church and work the coffee station in the school. (Mrs. Prechtel is working the coffee station in the atrium).
PFO is providing donuts for all students and visitors, as well as plates and napkins. Please consider helping make this a great day!
