Dear Families,

Thank you so much for your support for our Parent/Club Auction and Dinner!  I was so excited when I found out how much our Summer Swim Basket went for!!!  Every dollar raised will go to improve OLM School in some way and that, in turn, will benefit your children!  I feel very humbled and blessed.

I also want to thank you for your continuous donations to our classroom, from snacks to cleaning supplies.  At this time we are in need of paper towels...we go through about a roll a day.  Any donations will be greatly appreciated!  Also the children's school boxes need replenishing.  Markers, crayons, glue (both glue sticks and liquid glue), and water color paints.  Your kiddos are big into creating art!!!  Thank you so much!

If I've said this before, please forgive me but your children know the Stations of the Cross amazingly well!  I couldn't be more proud of them!  We've finished our ABC Bootcamp and I think it's made a huge difference in your children's letter recognition and beginning sound skills, plus they love it!  We will continue to review our chart until the end of the year.  In Handwriting Without Tears we'll be working on the letters AA, Yy and ZZ, diagonal  lines.  We'll review shapes and write our letters and numbers.  In Second Step we'll concentrate on "Saying the problem."  The children have all made their crosses, my husband wants to put a clear finish on them and then hopefully we can get them blessed.  I wanted the kids to do the clear finish but my husband told me they shouldn't be breathing the fumes in (sorry what do I know about working with wood?)

We'll be very busy but happy!  I heard the weather will be beautiful so we'll really enjoy our outside time which is also a learning time as that is where we get out our chalk and either write our names, numbers or this theme make tall buildings!

God Bless you all,

​Miss C.
