Thank You! Happy Summer!

Thank you so much for a wonderful year with your children! I'm so proud of each and everyone one of them and can't wait to see what they accomplish in the future. Thank you all families for your help and support throughout the year. I will miss you all! Have a wonderful summer and see you all in August!

Final Mass! Last Day of School Tomorrow!

We had a wonderful week and I can't believe tomorrow is our last day of school. Please join us for our final Mass at 8:30 a.m. Remember, all students should wear their mass uniform. Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow. We will attend Kindergarten Celebration tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. to support our Reading Buddies.

Field Day Tomorrow!

Hey everyone! We had a great Picnic Day and the fun will continue tomorrow with our Annual Field Day. Mrs. Reker and Ms. Amanda have been working so hard on the activities and we are very excited. We will begin outside in the morning around 9 a.m. and end in time for lunch. Students are able to be in free dress, including shorts as they will be active. The shorts should be appropriate length and I would suggest not wearing anything that you don't mind getting a little dirty. There is the potential for water games, so I would also suggest bringing a towel and a change of clothes for after. Parents are more than welcome to come and watch their children. If you plan on taking your child home after the festivities, please be sure to have your child check in with me first and sign them out in the office. We are looking forward to tomorrow. Don't forget the sunscreen and possibly a hat!

Picnic Day Tomorrow!

Hello All! Tomorrow is our Picnic Day. The 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders will walk to Haley Park (Behind the Museum of the Southwest) for fun and lunch. We will leave school at 9:30 to head to the park and will enjoy the day there until around 12:00 p.m. Parents are more than welcome to come so long as they walk with the students to the park or meet us there. Students are not able to ride to the park with parents or ride back home with them. All students must go to and from the park as a class for safety and keeping track of all our students. If you would like to check your child out for the day following Picnic Day, you may. Please just meet us back at school and sign them out in the office. Students must have a signed permission form by a parent and be in school uniform (but may bring a cap to wear for the sun). Please have them bring a sack lunch (unless they ordered from the Sanchez Family) and a water bottle with their name on it. If you would like to bring them lunch, that is fine as well. We will eat around 11:00 a.m. Haley Park is a new venue for us as our "go-to" Dennis the Menace Park is closed for renovations. The park has limited equipment, but a vast space. Please feel free to bring playground equipment to play with. Don't forget to apply some sunscreen before school! Thank you all so much and we're looking forward to tomorrow!

Last Monday!

May Crowning Tomorrow

We couldn't be more proud of the hard work that all the 3rd graders have put in for our May Crowning Service. We would love for you to join us at Mass tomorrow at 8:30. Our Prayer Service and Crowning will take place at the conclusion of Mass. As a reminder, all 3rd Graders are encouraged to wear their "Sunday Best" as hosts of this mass. We will be walking to Church early in preparation, so please bring your child to school no later than 7:45, as we will walk to mass promptly at 8:05. Also, please feel free to bring some lovely flowers to offer to our Blessed Mother! Look forward to seeing all of you tomorrow!
