Camp forms:  Most forms have been turned in, but we are still missing a few.  Additional forms were sent home with these students.  Please return them ASAP, as we leave for camp on October 10..  

Your help is needed!  

First, we need parent volunteers to help with 6th grade lunch days.  This is a part of junior high.  Each junior high class is responsible for shopping, cooking, serving, cleaning up for lunch about once a month.  The corresponding class earns the profits from those lunches.  Any money that our class raises will be saved in an account and will go with them to 7th grade.  In seventh grade, they will need this money to host the graduation dance and to enjoy a nice field trip.  It is necessary to start saving now!  In order to make this happen, we need everyone's help!  We have a large class, so if everyone could sign up to help with lunch one time, we would be covered.  This involves being at the school from 10:00 AM until 1:00 PM on an assigned lunch day.  Our scheduled days are as follows:

October 26th
November 16th
January 18th
March 1st (no meat, Ash Wednesday)
April 26th
May 17th

I'm hoping that by letting you know ahead of time, everyone will be able to arrange to help at one lunch.  You can also earn service hours for this.  Please email to let me know if there is a date you can help!  Thank you!

Donations needed:  
We are in need of 3 plastic laundry baskets.  One is needed to store our playground equipment.  The other 2 will be used to carry up cans/bags at Mass.  At the blessing of the animals, we will be collecting dog food for the shelter.  This will be carried up during the offertory.   

Please let me know if you are able to donate a laundry basket.  Thanks again!

______________________________________________________
Blessing of the Animals:  The Mass and blessing are scheduled for October 7 at 11:00. Animals may be brought at this time and will sit in an assigned section with their adults until Mass is over.  At that time, students will be able to get their pets for a blessing.  

I will be bringing my new puppy, Mamie!

Thank you so much for all the kind words and prayers with the loss of my beloved cocker spaniel, Phoebe.  I had her for 12 1/2 years and miss her tremendously.  Thank you to my students for the thoughtful cards.  Once again, it is so nice to work at a Catholic school where we can openly pray for one another. On a brighter note, I will be getting a new puppy Sept. 30.  She will also be a cocker spaniel named Mamie.  I'm excited for my school family to meet her at the blessing of the animals.  


Homework help:  There will be NO HOMEWORK help Thursday, September 29.  The assistant superintendent is visiting our school and will be meeting with the teachers at 2:30.  I apologize for any inconvenience.

​I have posted some English videos that we watched in class.  These should help with studying for next week's test.​  You can see them by scrolling down to last weeks blog.

​

We are in the process of revising blogs.  I wanted to get this up and running for next week.  In the coming weeks, as I become more familiar with it, I will add videos to enrich our learning.
