Dear Parents,
We are all so excited about
the Christmas Pageant! The students have
been working hard memorizing their song and movements. They had a chance to practice last Friday
when they performed for their elderly buddies at the nursing home. Everyone was so impressed!
I know everyone wants to get
to the church early tomorrow to get good seats, but I’ve been told that the
church doors will not open until 6:45
pm. PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR CLASSROOM DOORS WILL OPEN PROMPTLY AT 6:30 PM – NO
EARLIER. All 4th grade
students must be in the classroom no later than 6:50pm.
LOOKING AHEAD TO JANUARY
2010………………………………..
FIELD TRIP TO MISSION SAN DIEGO – I have
enclosed a field trip permission slip in today’s blue folder. We will be going on Tuesday, January 12th
from 9 to 12 noon. Please fill out the
permission slip and return by tomorrow or Friday the latest. Thank you!
GEOGRAPHY BEE will be held in
the Parish Hall on Wednesday, January 6th at 1:15pm. All parents are invited to attend this annual
event. We will be cheering on our 4th
grade representatives!
Congratulations to Brooke
Connolly, Jack Mandala, and Andy McDonald – they are the first three students
to be this year’s MATH WHIZ! As a
reminder, a Math Whiz is able to pass the two-sided multiplication and division
drill test in 5 minutes (190 facts).
Winners are taken out to lunch to Subways as my treat!
I’d like to take this
opportunity to wish all of you all the joys that Christmas brings. May you be blessed with His peace. Enjoy your
vacation! See you back on Monday,
January 4th, 2010!
Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year!
