Next Tuesday the Preschool will be starting their first fundraiser of the school year with a "World's Finest Chocolate" bar fundraiser!
Once students return the permission slip which will be going home next Tuesday, October 15th, each student will get a box of chocolate bars to sell. Each chocolate bar is only $1.00 and would be great to hand out for Trick or Treat!
Some lucky winners will get a Golden Ticket in their boxes, which is good for a 1-pound chocolate bar!
Prizes will be awarded to the top sellers. Good luck everyone!
Last Chance!
Students were given order forms yesterday to order books from Author and Illustrator, Jonathan Miller.

It's going to be a spook-tacular event!
The 6th grade class is sponsoring their first fundraiser during their journey through the Iron Giraffe Challenge. The goal of the challenge is to raise money for the Water for South Sudan organization to help them dig clean water wells in South Sudan, Africa. The team of students will host several fundraisers this year, and the first one started today with an aluminum can drive. All cans donated during this drive will be recycled to earn money that will be added to the team’s donation total. The group will take all types of aluminum drink cans, but leave soup and vegetable cans at home. Help out the Water for South Sudan team by bringing in as many empty, aluminum cans as you can to your homeroom until Friday at 3:15pm.
Dear Parents,
We are excited to introduce the Virtues in Practice program, designed for our students in grades K-8 to help them grow in virtue. Throughout the school year, our entire school community will focus on the same virtue each month, covering a total of 27 virtues over a three-year cycle.
This year, we will begin with the theological virtue of faith, exploring a different aspect of this virtue each month. The program emphasizes learning and role-playing in the classroom and encourages students to engage in monthly projects at home. These projects aim to help students practice the virtues in real-life situations.
Teachers will send home a list of project choices that will be completed at home each month along with a simple reflection form which will need to be returned to school at the end of each month, signed by both parents and students. This reflection will help reinforce the learning and engagement with the virtue.
Look for more information coming home from your teachers.
We appreciate your support and involvement in this meaningful initiative!
