In language we are writing sentences from prompts and practicing words with the “ph” and “ch” sounds. In religion we are learning about Jesus telling His disciples about his death and resurrection. This week in math we are working on understanding two- and three-dimensional shapes.

Please note that all talent performances must be under 5 minutes. Talent Show permission slips are due back to school no later than Thursday, April 17th.

Family Movie Night
<\/span>Hope will host a family movie night on Friday, April 11th. If you are interested in a pizza dinner at school, please fill out the form and return to the school office by Wednesday, April 10th.

Serve-a-Thon
<\/span>At Hope Lutheran School, we are called to serve others as the hands and feet of Christ. This year, we are excited to do our Serve-A-Thon, which is like our traditional Walk-A-Thon, as a way to actively live out our faith by reaching out and making a difference in the Johnson County community.

During the week of April 5th through the 9th, students will dedicate their time and energy to meaningful service projects throughout our city. From preschoolers serving on campus to older students working at various locations, each child will experience the joy of giving back. Through this, we hope they will see firsthand how their kindness and compassion can be a blessing to others.

As part of the Serve-A-Thon, students will raise funds to support Hope Lutheran School. Our goal is $32,000, which will go toward enhancing our school\u2019s ever-evolving technology needs. Leading up to the event, students will collect pledges for the service project their class will complete. In addition, we will be giving LUMA 10% of our proceeds to support their mission.

Serve-a-Thon Field Trip
<\/span>First grade’s service project for the serve-a-thon is Monday, April 7th in the afternoon. We currently do not have enough drivers for this field trip. If you are able and willing to drive please email me. Permission slips for the field trip are due today, April 3rd.

Make-Up Snow Days
<\/span>We have three snow days built into our calendar this year. We will be making up one day on April 25th.

PTA Meeting
<\/span>Hope’s annual open PTA meeting will be Monday, April 14th at 5:30 pm in the commons.

Memory – Luther’s Evening Prayer
<\/span>I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have graciously kept me this day; and I pray that You would forgive me all my sins where I have done wrong, and graciously keep me this night. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen.
