Lenten Services / Student Ushers – 3rd grade has been asked to help with handing out service folders and ushering for the 4:00 Wednesday Lenten Services beginning on February 21st. This is an opportunity for the students to be involved in a way that they enjoy and can be of service to the congregation that supports our school in so many ways. Student helpers can stay with me after school and I will accompany them to the sanctuary and stay with them until after the service. Please use this Sign-Up Genius to indicate which service(s) your child could be available to serve. It is not expected that your child serves every week, but please indicate any/all weeks that it would be possible. Lenten student usher sign-up
Mite Boxes – Don’t forget to keep putting your coins in your Mite Boxes! We are encouraging all children at Hope Lutheran School to fill their MITE BOX and bring it back on February 28th for chapel.
The best way to fill the mite box is to put your loose change from the car or have the children put in a penny a day. Thank you for supporting the LWML.
Science Fair – This year’s school-wide end-of-the-year event is a Science Fair on May 1st. This is a required project for all full-time students. Students have had their topics approved. They all received a yellow folder. This folder is the student’s scientific journal for their projects. This folder must be filled out with each part of their project. This is what needs to be turned in to the teacher. The folder will also be displayed at the science fair as it shows their work during their experiment. There will be dates and items that students need to bring in to check and be graded. Because this is a Science fair, students should be doing experiments and following along with the Scientific Method.
Grandparents Day – Please be sure to Invite Grandparents and Special Person Day to join us on Friday, March 8th. The students will be performing. There will be snacks, games, and crafts for all our guests. Save the date! Please RSVP at https://forms.gle/8ZYr2VH5pZXGe8uC8
End of Quarter – The end of the 3rd quarter is on Friday, March 8th. All missing and absent work must be turned in by Thursday, March 7th to receive credit.
