I hope your holiday season has started off well.  Keep it going by making sure you enjoy our Christmas Program on Wednesday night at 6:30 p.m. in the church. EVERY 6^th grader has speaking/singing parts! PLEASE practice their parts with them. Most are doing super, but some aren’t quite memorized.

Here’s a brief look into next week.

Monday:  Music Practice 9:15 a.m.

5^th-6^th graders will sing at the parish center at 1 p.m. (Holiday luncheon)

Tuesday: P.E. – Hockey

            Music Practice if needed

Wednesday:  Dress Rehearsal

Music Program – students need to be there at 6:15 p.m., please remind them of best behavior.

1^st Flea Market – 5/6 graders will bring items in to sell to other kids. It can be home baked goods, cleaned out from your closet or even bought. It will be a fun time! This is how they get to use the classroom money they have worked so hard to earn. It is also a great time to make more. J We will talk about the percent that goes back to the bank.

Thursday: Last library day before Christmas!

Lynnette, Bart & I will be working with the kids on the quilt today – THANK YOU to those who have sent in money to help with cost. We couldn’t make it without your help. This is a great money maker for our school.

Friday: Mass by 3^rd grade, 9 am

EARLY RELEASE – PLEASE HAVE A PLAN so your child knows how they are getting home at 11:40 a.m. that day.  There is no daycare and teachers leave early that day as well. J

I will not send home a letter over Christmas, so have a wonderful vacation time. Keep Christ at the center of your heart this season, even when things get busy. I will keep all of you in my prayers for safe travels & family time.

Over break your child should be reading and studying morphemes! J

Have a great weekend!

Mrs. Gehring
