Happy Last Week of the 2018 School Year!  Can you believe it?  I am amazed at how quickly this 1st semester has gone.  When we return in January, we have 1 week and then we will start a new semester!  All the middle school teachers expect any missing or late assignments must be turned in by Friday of this week.

We have our last Advent Prayer service in the church on Monday morning.  Feel free to join us if you can, we start right at 8:30.    The 7th graders will be shopping at the 8th graders' Santa's Workshop.  Hopefully they will find some good gifts to bring home to put under the tree.  The student council is also selling candy canes this week and the money will be added to the red bucket donations we collected last week.  (Over $250 was collected!!!)

We have mass on Wednesday at 8:45!  Fr. Randy has returned and he looks like he is doing great!  I am so happy for him and his quick healing!

The students have a dress rehearsal on Thursday afternoon.  I look forward to seeing all their hard work show through their performance on Friday.  THANK YOU to Ms. Anne Marie and her elves who are working so hard to make it all come together.

Friday we will have a "normal" schedule through 10:30.  Students will come back to homeroom where we will have lunch and then end up in the church at 11:45.  I would recommend coming a bit early to the church to grab a seat, I have a feeling it will be very full.

I hope the students have enjoyed their rice bags that I made.  They seemed so excited, so hopefully they have brought them home and are enjoying them.  Be sure that the bag doesn't stay in the microwave longer than 90 seconds.  They can also be stored in the freezer for when there are headaches or sore muscles!

Many blessings and Merry Christmas,
Kim

Dear Parents, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!  Your kids have done a great job so far with the pig dissection.  Their interest continues to grow and their concentration on the task at hand has made all the difference.  I gave them a copy of the study guide for the upcoming test, so hopefully he/she have started at least looking at the information.  That test will be May 20th and its a BIG ONE, so hopefully they will be ready to go when the time arrives! This is our last week of "normal" classes before everything with end-of-the-year stuff is upon us!  Please keep an eye out for the principal updates each Friday.  He does a great job of giving the upcoming activities happening at school. Have a great week!!! Many blessings, Kim

Happy April Fool's Day!  :) Can you believe we are all ready to enter APRIL?!  I hope that spring break went well for everyone.  It was a much needed break and I am sure that the 7th graders were ready to relax after all the science fair hubbub!  :) We will be finishing up the MAEAR project they are working on in science.  Those are due at the beginning of class on Wednesday, April 10th, along with the self assessment.  After that project, we will start the virtual pig dissection.  This year we're able to set up the computer program on the Chrome Books so the students can work on it independently.  We start the actual pig dissection after Easter break. I look forward to a great spring!  I can't wait to see the school play this upcoming week! Take care, Kim

Dear Parents, It was a great first week back at school!  I know that I keep saying that I can't believe these kids are in my homeroom, but I am still amazed that time flown by this fast.  They were the little ones in the cafeteria, when I would walk by at lunch, and shout "IT'S SCIENCE DAY!" and now it's science day every day!  :)  I loved their enthusiasm then and am truly driven by it now. The rain just keeps coming down.  I hope that your family has not seen damage to your home due to the excess water.  I hope we get some dry days very soon! This week this kids start, in earnest, on the first project in science for the year.  They are each to build a plant or animal cell.  Each project should make a connection to a topic (sports, food, a building, etc..) and be created via that connection.  I am so anxious to see the creativity of this group.  The project and all its parts are due on September 20th. There are several students ...
