Week of September 20-24

Announcements for this Week:

Jeans for Greens
On Thursday, September 23, the Student Council is sponsoring a Jeans for Greens day! This fundraiser offers students the opportunity to wear jeans to school for the cost of $1 per student. More information will be forthcoming in this week's Family Envelope.

Monthly Assembly
On Friday, September 24, our monthly school assembly will take place after Mass on the Back Yard.


Looking Forward:

ITBS Testing
Testing begins on Monday, September 27. Please make sure students have a full night's sleep and a nutritious breakfast each morning of testing. The test will be administered first thing in the morning, so please be sure to have students at school on time.

Feast of St. Jerome Mass
On Thursday, September 30, there will be a Special School Mass at 11:15am in honor of the Feast of St. Jerome. Please make sure that students wear their regular uniforms on this day (not P.E. uniforms). This Special Mass will take the place of our usual Friday Mass that week.

Progress Reports
Progress Reports will be distributed on Tuesday, October 5 only for students who may need extra support in a particular content area.

Gradelink
Please forgive the delay in posting grades on Gradelink. I have not yet received training on the use of the Gradelink program, and I am delaying the posting of grades in order to ensure accuracy and clarity in my communication of students' progress to you. I hope to have recent grades posted by next week, but in the meantime, if you have any questions about your child's progress, please feel free to contact me via e-mail.

Our Star of the Week is: Alex Gonzalez
