Faculty vs 8th Grade Game

Tomorrow we play the 8th grade in the tradtional volleyball game. The game will be at 1:30, and the concession stand will be open for the kids to purchase a drink and a snack if they choose to do so. They will only be able to spend $2. Don't forget that the wrap up to Catholic Schools Week will be at St. Peter Church at the 5:15.

Amazing Race SPIS Style

Day 4 of Catholic Schools Week
Faith, Knowledge and Service in Our Vocations

We started the day off in the gym as we set out for the Amazing Race! I was with team #3 and we had a BLAST racing around the campus and flying through the gym as we collected clues along the way. I have to admit, I got a little caught up in the whole thing and I forgot to take more pictures.

Mini Sessions

Day 3 Catholic Schools Week
Faith, Knowledge and Service in Our Nation


Today we spent some time learning to do a variety of things. Be sure to ask your children about the fun activities they did in their sessions. I wish I could have walked around to each session, but I was assigned to helping with the making of mini pizzas. Below are some pictures from my time in the kitchen.
Time to eat!

Ready to make dinner for the family!

Reading Counts

In your child's homework folder you will find a Student Report. This is a progress report that lets you know the various books your child has read and how they are doing on the quizzes. It is extremely important that your child pick books that are a good fit for them, This means that they need to pick books that are in their Lexile range. Please sign the report and return it to school tomorrow so your child can put it in their Reading Counts folder to help them track the books they have read.

I'm Back!

Oh thank goodness, I'm back! As hard as I have tried to avoid the flu it finally got me! As you may know I left school Monday and then was gone Tuesday. I am back today and feeling MUCH better! Please know that we have been wiping down our desk on a regular basis and I have encouraged the kids to bring their own water bottles to avoid the water fountains. I strongly encourage you to keep your kiddos home if they are not feeling well so they can get to feeling better and we don't continue to pass this around.

Some People Are Worth Melting For!

We did the cutest writing activity the other day!  The kids' melted snowmen turned out so cute I had to share. Now this is only a small portion of our snowmen, Mrs. Dampf & Mrs. Neidert joined us and wrote stories as well.

You are Simply the best!

I would like to thank each and every one of you for the wonderful Christmas present. The gift cards and candy were so sweet of you and are truly appreciated. I would also like to thank those of you that helped with the Christmas party the children had a great time!
