Project Needs for Art & Spanish Classes
Art Class Needs
The sixth, seventh and eighth graders will be constructing gingerbread villages for the Christmas season. I am in need of all of the leftover spackle or drywall mud you may have hiding in your basements. I would also welcome any scraps of pink styrofoam insulation as this is what will use to build our structures.
Thank you,
Mrs. Baumhardt, Art Teacher
Spanish Class Needs
For Christmas, the students will making piñatas in Spanish class. We need medium - large cardboard boxes, old newspaper or recycled paper, glue and crepe paper (red, white, green, brown, peach).
Thank you,
Senora Torres, Spanish Teacher

The 12 Days of Christmas
The Home & School organizes the 12 Days of Christmas for Shepherd of the Hills staff. The gift is up to you as well as whether you take it on yourself or get a group together to sponsor a day. Charcuterie and snacks, a coffee and hot cocoa bar, jars of local honey, fancy cookies, Faris popcorn, wine and cheese, and hand soaps are all some of the fun surprises that have been gifted in the past. Sign up at the link below.
Part of the 12 Days of Christmas is giving each of the staff a letter from a parent and a student. Be it a heartfelt letter, a short note in a Christmas card, or a hand colored picture covered in stickers (all things Mrs. Hively has received in the past), these notes of appreciation MEAN A LOT to the staff members that receive them! Sign up below to be part of this special Shepherd of the Hills tradition.
