Lancer Home Connection
Welcome!
Welcome to the first edition of our "Lancer Home Connection!" It is our hope that this newsletter will not only provide you with much needed information, but, give you a glimpse of the amazing happenings in our classrooms!
Dr. Stritch Visits
Dr. Stritch paid us a visit to discuss WWII and the Sullivan Brothers.
Honoring Family Veterans
Our students and staff brought photos of their friends and family members that have served our country. We pray for them daily.
Veteran's Day Prayer Service
Choir students led us in "God Bless America" during our Veteran's Day All School Prayer Service.
Talent Show
On Thursday, November 14, 2019, Mrs. Kingsbury assisted by Mrs. Wisniewski invited our students to participate in the talent show. It was an exciting evening of entertainment.
Thank you to all involved in helping to make our St. Damian students shine.

Science Fair Work Begins
The 6th graders began work on their Science Fair Projects this week. Did you know that seventh and eighth grade teams competed at the State Science Fair Competition last year? We are committed to keep that momentum going!
The Parable of The Sower
Students in 5th grade studied The Parable of The Sower in religion and in their science class, planted seeds on rocks, cotton, and soil. They were able to develop a visual and fully understand what Jesus' words meant in hearing and understanding His words by working in a cross curricular unit. It's amazing the different ways the students are able to implement their faith into all they do each day.
St. Damian School
Saint Damian School ensures individual students reach their potential through the development of their Catholic faith, character, citizenship and academics.
