This is a fundraising event to support the Student Wellness Campaign, focusing on nurturing their physical, emotional, and spiritual health. 

 9:45 Run begins- Grades will run with their assigned chapel families.

Fifth grade is to wear gray with their PE shorts.  

Please read the 3-6 grade Scoop for more information.  

We continue to work on our President/First Lady research papers. I’m proud to say that eleven of our fifteen students have completed their reports.  We are focusing on our “speech” presentation for our Wax Museum.  I would encourage you to ask your child to listen to what he/she has already memorized.  All academic requirements will be completed in class.  I remind you to be searching for the appropriate clothes that your child will wear for this event. (April 30)

Upcoming assessments:

Wednesday- Social Studies test over chapter 8

Thursday- Spelling Test

In Jesus,
