Dear parents and students,

WOW!  What an undertaking!  We had 62 students and 15 adults go on our Field
trip!  Balboa Park was beautiful and I heard many positive remarks from
students and chaperones!  We were especially lucky to see the Darwin exhibit
from the ANHM of New York as it leaves the end of this month!  I want to thank
our drivers and chaperones...we are so blessed to have all of you take us and
spend the day with us:  Mrs. Auerbach, Mrs. Bernie Clark, Mrs. R. Cooper, Mrs.
Garner, Mrs. Gascho, Mrs. Green, Mrs. Lagotta, Mrs. Larkin, Mrs. McGovern,
Mrs. Mueller, Mrs. Pinnella, and Mrs. Laurie Smith! 

Seventh grade will have a Valentine/Crane party on Thursday 2/11 after lunch.
 In lieu of the BABY SHOWER gifts of past years, we are collecting money for
Haiti.  If you wish to contribute, please send a sealed envelope which we will
collect Thursday. Students may bring valentines if they choose but if they do,
they must bring one for each student in the class addressed and signed.  I
will send home class lists.

More times to visit our campus!  Come and bring your friends to see
us in action!  We will also be open for 2 more "See Us in Action" dates: 2/24
and 3/10 from 9-11am.  

Please check assignment calendars for each of the junior high classes (See
"Calendar" links on the left navigation bar).  
 
Seventh is studing "Change over time".

My Pre-Algebra group continues Chapter 8.  

Eighth Grade is now studying and creating hydrocarbon models.

New Dismissal continues with unexpected rewards!  With so many parents picking
students up at their classroom doors, there is an increased opportunity for
fellowship among parents.  No time to chat?  Students can also be picked up in
front of the school.  Carpools will be announced and students will come to the
front of the school to meet you.

Remember to email me any concerns or questions at anytime.  I am also
available most mornings at 7:30AM.  Students may arrive early (7:30) but
between 7:30 and 7:45AM must be in either the 7th or 8th grade classrooms. 
They cannot go to lockers before 7:45 AM unless accompanied by their parent.


In partnership,

Mrs. Pat Paluso
