Catholic Schools Week
Friday was our Student Appreciation Day! The students enjoyed a few lively rounds of Bingo, with the older students working with their buddies to match their letters and numbers on the Bingo boards. Following Bingo, the different classes spent time playing board games, having a "Drop Everything and Read", or doing other activities in the classroom. The highlight of the day was the Disney themed door decorating contest. The pictures of each door are on the school Facebook account - please like your favorites before 8pm tonight when the voting closes. I did also include them below for those who may not have have seen them on Facebook. All the students and teachers did an amazing job!
