Thank you for all the sweet valentine gifts and candy! I appreciate your thoughtfulness! The class had a fun party and a great Valentine’s Day! J

Book order forms have been sent home. You can fill out the form and return it to me with your money or order online! The book orders are due on Thursday, February 23rd.

I need all Mid-Quarter reports signed and returned by Tuesday, February 21st. Thank you!

Please remind your child to read and color a day on the calendar for Book-It!

Lent begins on Wednesday, February 22nd with Ash Wednesday and continues until Easter. We will celebrate mass at 8:15 on Ash Wednesday. During Lent, we abstain from eating meat on Ash Wednesday and every Friday until Easter. If your child brings their lunch on these days, please do not send meat. We will also have Silent Wednesdays in the cafeteria which means there is no talking during Wednesdays during Lent. If you come and eat with your child on Silent Wednesday please follow this also. During Lent I will be asking each child to think of one thing he/she would like to give up during Lent, or something additional he/she would like to perform during Lent. Some possible ideas might be: give up snacks after school on Fridays, give up ice cream, give up candy, give up sodas, pray one decade of the rosary each night, read a Saint story each night, etc. You might, as a family, like to come up with something to do together. This is a wonderful opportunity to help teach your child to act as Jesus did

No School on Monday, February 20th for President’s Day!

The third grade is working on a project with the Science Stewardship Expo which will be held on Friday, February 3. Our project involves making things out of aluminum as a way to promote recycling.

Next week starts the Baby Bottle kickoff for the Heart to Heart Center.  We will have a very large baby bottle in our classroom.  If you would like to send spare change with your child to help fill the bottle, that would be appreciated.  You might want to have your child consider “donating” their snack money on Fridays to this worthy organization.
