Parents,
A few quick notes of interest in this first week of the new year:
1. Graduation pictures will be taken this Wednesday, January 6th. Eighth
graders must be dressed up, meaning gentlemen are in dress shirts and ties and
ladies are in Sunday best.
2. This Friday, January 8th, is the end of the second quarter. Is all your
student's required work in? Is there time to make up missing work? Contact
teachers for any information you need to insure your student's success.
3. Second quarter report cards will be sent home on Friday, January 15th. Mark
your calendar and expect to see the report card on Friday, not Tuesday when it
must be returned!
4. The Catholic High School entrance exam is this Saturday, January 9th. ALL
Catholic schools test on the same day!!! Call the school of your choice for
information regarding time, cost, required supplies, and the accepted use of
calculators.
