Dear Parents,
I am sorry to be so late on my weekly update....
Tuesday starts the new quarter/ 2nd semester! The electives change as do reading classes. I hope that the changes in schedules goes smoothly. Please let me know if you have questions or concerns. Tuesday is also the band concert. It is at 9am in the gym. I love these concerts, as a former "band geek", I love watching the kids learn to love this activity. Finally, there is a spaghetti dinner from 5-7 in the gym. The Knights of Columbus are in charge and are giving all the proceeds to help the people of Belize. Tickets are sold at the door. I hope you can join us!
Wednesday is the 1st class with a new reading teacher. There are many similarities between the way Mr. Pothof and I teach, but there are several differences, too. Be sure to ask questions if you have them.
Thursday is our next science fair work day. Many students came prepared to work last week, but there were just as many unprepared. Please be sure your child comes prepared to work, as this is prime opportunities for them to run their experiment and ask me questions. Thursday is also a forensics competition and the kids leave school a bit early. We hope they all "break a leg". I am sure it will go well, they seem very comfortable with their performances.
Friday, I hope to see many of you at the dinner. I hope you know that I appreciate each and every one of you more than you will ever know. I am so grateful for your thoughts, prayers and support! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Many blessings,
Kim

Dear Parents,
We survived the bitter cold weather last week! Not one recess outside all week... We got a little restless by the end of the week, but hopefully there will be many opportunities to get out this coming week.
Friday is the end of the 2nd quarter! Can you believe we are 1/2 way through the year? The next 2 quarters will be VERY busy and as it goes, your child will have more and more responsibilities. I have watched each of your children grow amazing amounts this year! I am so proud of their accomplishments and can't wait to see what the last 2 quarters will bring. Please remember to keep the communication lines open with me. I am always available via email. I check it frequently throughout the day and many times through the weekend. Please stay in touch!
There are no real announcements for the upcoming week. Please note that there is NO SCHOOL next Monday.
Couple reminders:
*SCRIP orders due on Tuesday by 10am.
*Friday is the end of the quarter.
*Report cards will come out sometime next week, but you can always look online at current grades.
*Keep up with those science fair due dates... Thursday is our first in class work day.
*Next Tuesday night from 5-7 is a spaghetti dinner sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. This is a fundraiser for the annual Belize Mission Trip. If you want more details or to buy tickets, please let me know. I can get you tickets. ($8 per person)
*Catholic Schools Week is in 2 weeks! :0)

Dear Parents,
Happy 3rd week of Advent! Can you believe that Christmas is a little over a week away? I hope your Advent has gone really well and that your anticipation of the birth of Christ has been a focus of your holiday season!
This week will go so quick, I have a feeling! :) So, hold on and let's enjoy the ride!
Monday: Our Advent prayer service is at 8:45 in church. Feel free to join us in the celebration of Gaudete Sunday!
Tuesday: Don't forget the last minute SCRIP orders! They must be in by 10am.
Wednesday: Mass is at 8:45 in church. We hope you can join us in our last school mass of 2014!
Thursday: We have a "regular" morning, but a dress rehearsal in the afternoon. I am looking forward to hearing and seeing all the hard work the students have made to help set the tone for the holiday season.
Friday: Lunch is early today. I am unsure of the timing. Please look at the Wednesday envelope information on the website for up-to-date information. The program begins at noon in the church. It should be over by 1:15 or so.
Be sure your child is developing an idea for the upcoming science fair. He/she is more than welcome to turn in the entry form prior to break. Doing this allows the student to work on the project over break because he/she knows that the idea has been ok'd by me.
Thank you all for such a wonderful year thus far! I am truly blessed by each and everyone of you!
Many blessings,
Kim

Hello Parents,
THANK YOU for all your help on another successful Craft Day! The kids did a great job! (couple hiccups, but those were taken care of by some great moms) So thank you for the continued support of such a wonderful day!
This week we start out with mass to celebrate the Immaculate Conception of Mary. I hope you are able to join us at 8:45 in the church. The students are supposed to wear their uniforms on both Monday and Wednesday this week.
Thursday, the 7th graders are signed up to visit the 8th grade Santa's shop. They are more than welcome to bring money and "go shopping". We are signed up to go first thing in the morning.
Friday, we welcome Mayor Soglin to our careers class. Last week, Noble Wray was supposed to come and talk with us, but unfortunately was unable to make it. Instead, Ms. Pitz and Mr. Pothof told us their stories of the jobs they've held during their lives.
Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers! Know that you have mine, as well!

Dear Parents...
I'm back... (said in my most eery voice possible!) Happy 1st week of Advent!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GENEROUS GIFT OF SCRIP!!! You all sure take great care of me! I have missed being at school so much and am really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things, albeit a little slower than normal. Mrs. Turk did such a great job of keeping up my crazy schedule and I am so grateful to her!
This week...
Monday: Advent prayer service at the beginning of the day in the church(feel free to join us if you would like)
Tuesday: Normal day; SCRIP orders due by 10am
Wednesday: Mass at 8:45 (join us if you are able); I will be handing out science fair information packets during class today. Reconciliation is at 1:15 in the church.
Thursday: Normal day; BINGO in the evening (heard many of you were there for turkey bingo...)
Friday: Careers visitor is former chief of police, Noble Wray. He is currently the interim Urban League president. We have Craft Day in the afternoon. This is always a time of great fun! If you plan to help, thank you in advance for your time and effort!
These next few weeks are going to fly by. While I was gone there were MANY, MANY missing assignments that occurred. PLEASE help me help your child stay caught up by checking the mystudentsprogress account frequently. Thank you!
Many blessings and know I am so thankful for each of your families!
