Dear Parents,

I hope you had a chance to view the cell reproduction videos.  We had fun watching them and even had some pretty good giggles!  :)

We started talking about genetics this week.  The kids are in the process of learning about how and why they are made the way they are.  It is rather entertaining watching their "light bulbs" pop on when they figure out some of his/her looks.  We will complete a spongebob activity and some halloween coloring sheets to help solidify their understanding.  The next project (which is individually completed) will be assigned on November 5th and have a fall/Thanksgiving theme.

Conferences are "scheduled" (we don't really schedule for middle school) for next Wednesday and Thursday.  PLEASE be sure your child joins you for the conference.  It is so important for the student to hear about areas of improvements that need to be made, but even more importantly positive points about his/her current status.  The only way to get the report card is to attend the conference.  I look forward to seeing you all!!!!

Have a great weekend and I hope that you enjoy the extra days off next week!  :)
Kim

Dear Parents, It's here, It's here, It's here.... finally, December has arrived!  I was so happy to start Advent this morning at church and hearing Deacon David's homily was really good.  Sounds like Fr. Randy is doing well and will use one more week of time to continue his healing.  Fr. Allam has been doing a good job in the absence of Fr. Randy.  We are so thankful for all of their leadership. This week: Monday: We have our first Advent Prayer gathering at 8:30 in the church.  Everyone is welcome to join us! The 6th - 8th grade will have Reconciliation in the church from 12:40-1:30.  All Catholic students will participate and those non-Catholics who would like a special blessing pray are welcome to come forward, as well. Wednesday:  We have mass at 8:45.  Thursday:  The long awaited Science Fair packets will be handed out to the 7th and 8th graders during science class.  The students have until December 13th to turn in the par...

Dear Parents, The week has finally arrived!  Science fair is FINALLY upon us!  Thursday night is the culmination of all the hard work these kids have done!  I hope you will join us from 6-7:30 in the gym.  We have 2 more weeks before the end of the quarter, which I can hardly believe!  Please be sure to check teacherease to check on your child's grades.  If you need to know how to access the grades, please let me know, I am more than happy to help you figure it out. I hope you have a fantastic week!  I look forward to seeing you all on Thursday evening! Many blessings, Kim
