  • Students may wear their P.E. uniform all day.
  • IF YOUR CHILD IS SAFETY PATROL – they may wear their red SP shirt and white pants all day if they are on duty the day of P.E.

A reminder that we are in the middle of our first fundraiser for 6th Grade Camp. A large percentage of whatever money your child raises is put forth to your family’s individual camp balanceOnline access for our catalog fundraising can be found here. If your child is collecting money/checks & paper orders, the order form and money envelope are due to me this Friday, September 6th.

All classes this week are starting their responses for their summer reading assignments. We’ll explore what makes a solid response to a prompt (RACES strategy and 8 sentence paragraph guidelines).

6th Grade will jump into their Old Testament study this week with a look at Divine Revelation (how God reveals His self to us). We’ll explore both revelation in creation and revelation in the Scriptures. In social studies, we are working our way through human origins (test scheduled for mid/late next week).
