Why are you here?

8th Grade:
During these last weeks let us be our best selves as we prepare to move on to other walks of life. You will never all function together as a class after this time and the memories you leave with one another and with the school are important!  May God bless this month!

Dear 8th Grade Parents~                                  
 Friday, April 28, is the 8th grade field trip to 6 Flags Theme Park in Vallejo.  I greatly thank those of you who have signed up to be chaperones – we couldn’t do this without you! Please check this list for your name and let me know ASAP if we have a discrepancy.
 
All Students and Chaperones: need to be at the Merced Amtrak Station by 7:00 am Friday, April 28th.   On the train and at the Park students MUST be with a chaperone at ALL times - Diocesan Policy! We should be back to Merced Amtrak Station around 8:45pm.
 Students need to bring money for their food and water for the day.  We will provide a morning treat of donuts on the train.  The weather is supposed to be clear in the mid to high 70’s so don’t forget sunscreen! 
 We look forward to seeing you at 7am on Friday morning!

4/24: A 4/12 missing assignment for some of you: Did you grow and change this Lent as you looked at things to "take on" and things "to give up," and as you found things to be thankful for each day?  In your faith journal write a short 5 paragraph essay about your Lenten experience.  Use examples from your choices to explain your experience.  YOUR CH13, S1 CORNELL NOTES WERE DUE TODAY - THEY NEED TO BE IN TOMORROW!!
