Today the students received their first set of graded papers.  Parents, please ask your child for these papers if they are not given to you!  This set contains their first spelling test as well as English, Math, and Religion work.  Remember, graded work is returned every Tuesday.

Tomorrow is our first pizza day.  Thanks to all who ordered pizza to support our Outdoor Education program!

Our first Family Mass of the year is this Sunday, Sept. 9, at 10:00.  I need one sixth grade student to read at this mass.  Please let me know if your child is able to do this.  I would really like to see all of my class attend this mass together!

This week we are emphasizing our roles as Highly Effective Communicators.
As such we:

• express ideas clearly and confidently
• listen to and respect the views of others
• work individually and cooperatively in finding solutions
• use technology as a tool to learn and communicate ideas

The Sixth Grade Value for the week is Respect.
There will be a quiz on Religion Chapter One on Friday, Sept. 7.
