Week of 10/17

Dear Parents,

I hope you had a great weekend! The saints reports were done so well and I loved reading them! We will be getting ready for our Saints Celebration this week and next! If your child was picked to read they will be coming home with a copy of their part to practice at home. It does not need to be sent back to school.

- The 7th grade will be selling popsicles for $1.00 at recess on Tuesday and Thursday to raise money for Cases for Smiles. Raffle tickets will also be sold for a chance to win variety of different prize baskets. Information was sent home Friday on this. 

- Information about parent teacher conference sign ups will be sent out this week. Please be on the look out for more info from me.

- If you would like to donate to our service project for the troops this month please send in small games (cards, dice, sudoku, crosswords) small gift cards to purchase books, movies, tv shows! All donations are due by Friday, October 28th! Thanks so much for your help with this!

- We will have a Religion Test on Chapter 3 on Thursday.

- There is a Virtual Home and School Meeting on Thursday night at 7:00 pm. Minding Your Mind will be presenting about anxiety in children. The zoom link will be sent out!

- Reading and Spelling test on Friday on a Musical Day.

- Friday is the JDRF Walk with the Principal to raise awareness for Juvenile Diabetes

-Thanks for having their winter uniforms ready to go last week! Here are a few things to note about winter uniform:

Girls and Boys = Navy socks, not white
Boys = white golf shirts without tie or white oxford button down WITH tie, belt required

Also, please be sure their names are in all sweaters, vests, 1/4 zips, jackets, etc. I will continue to check uniforms the next couple weeks.  Thank you!

That is it for now! Go Phils!
Mrs. Hallinan
