Dear Parents,
What a great time was had by all on Saturday night! Thank you so much for all who helped out with the planning and carrying out of such an event! :) I hope you all had as much fun as I did! I saw lots of smiles and high fives!
This week is one of the last "normal" weeks of school before we begin end of the year craziness! We will finish up our virtual pig dissection on Tuesday at the end of class. We will complete a skeletal lab on Wednesday and a muscle lab on Thursday. April 27th is the day we begin the actual pig dissection. The students seem to be getting anxious about it!
Enjoy the spring weather and let's finish the year strong!
Many blessings,
Kim

Have a spectacular week! I am grateful for you!

Dear Parents,
On the eve of the HOPEFUL Badger win, I sit down to write the update! Regardless of the outcome, I am so proud of this team. The men on the team have provided such a great example for our young people both in Madison and nation wide. I hope you've had a chance to watch some of the interviews posted by the Badgers; they are funny, tasteful and honest.
OK, this week we are back at it! There are only 7 Mondays left in the year, so we need to buckle down and stay focused on finishing strong! Here's the upcoming week:
Tuesday: We are starting our Virtual Pig Dissection (VPD). The students will work at their own pace with this part of the unit being completed by the end of class on April 21st. This is easily doable, so no need to be concerned about not finishing in time.
Wednesday: We celebrate the resurrection of Christ in our "Easter" mass. I hope you are able to join us at 8:45 in the church.
Thursday: The 5th graders will join the middle school students in "a day in the life of a middle schooler". The shadow day is one that gives the 5th graders some real hands-on experiences of "living at the other end of the building".
Friday: Just a regular day for us! :)

Dear Parents,
I will say it one more time... I am so proud of your kids! The science fair is complete and they each did such an awesome job!
This week starts the beginning of the 4th quarter, can you believe that? We will start the virtual pig dissection when we get back from spring break and then the real dissection begins. I can't wait to get the students involved in this unit. They almost always begin very hesitant and end like a surgeon!
This week at a glance:
*Monday: regular day
*Tuesday: morning schedule is switched up due to the 7th graders sharing their LA papers with the younger students
*Wednesday: 7th/8th graders lead the Stations of the Cross (1:30-2:30); We would love for you to join us!
*Thursday: MAEFAR project is due at the end of science class
*Friday: Jumprope for Heart all afternoon!
SPRING BREAK! Happy Easter!
Many blessings,
Kim

Happy St. Patty's Day... almost!
Dear Parents,
I can not begin to tell you how proud I am of each of your kids. The science fair was a complete success. I am currently almost 1/2 done with grading each project. I promise to have the results to the kids by Friday at the latest, hopefully by Wednesday. I feel bad it is taking so long, but I am trying to be thorough.
Get that SCRIP ordered by Tuesday at 10am!
Mass is on Wednesday morning and we have reconciliation scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.
The end of the quarter is on Friday. I am so amazed that 4th quarter is next week. This year seems to have flown by. Next week is crazy busy and then.... spring break!
Many blessings,
Kim

Dear Parents,
Many, many thanks go out to all of the awesome help at Trivia Knight. I believe it was a true success in every aspect! The past committee sure did a great job establishing an excellent evening of fun!
This week is busy...
Monday: We will finish up our presentations for the science fair. They've truly gone so well! I am really proud of the 7th graders.
Tuesday: We will set up the gym around 11:30. The kids will eat lunch as normal. We will be in the gym from 1pm until 3pm. If you are unable to join us in the evening, feel free to come by in the afternoon. The students need to be at his/her spot by 5:55pm and will be finished by 8:05pm. It is my hope to have help breaking down the set up if possible. The most important piece is the FINAL DRAFT of the paper must be left with me at the end of the evening.
Wednesday: Church is at 8:45 and we hope to see you there.
Thursday and Friday should be normal days of school.
Take care,
Kim
