Please attend Mass on Sunday. Pay particular attention to the changes around the church.

A big thank-you to those who participated in the toy drive! Your contribution will make a child who might not otherwise get a gift very happy.

The weather is supposed to be great this weekend. Go out and have fun. There probably won't be too many nice days left.

Tomorrow, Dec.1st, starts the meteorlogical winter(per Tom Skilling of Channel 9). Thought you'd like that little tidbit of information.

Please return Progress Reports on Monday.

I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Pizza day is Friday, November 30th. If you did not order pizza for your child, be sure to send a lunch as there are no hot lunches for that day.

Please remember the toy drive is going on all this week. Let's try to make Christmas a happy time for some kids who won't get anything.

We have a "spy" in our classroom!!!  Sprite, the Elf  On The Shelf, has invaded our classroom. He is spying for Santa and will give his report each night from now until Christmas break. We are all trying to be on our best behavior so he will only give good reports to Santa.

Get well wishes to Christopher. He had his tonsils out over the break. Hope he'll be back soon.

Have a great evening!

Homework: There is no homework over the Thanksgiving holiday. If the children are bored, they can work on flashcards or work with their spelling lists. This can also be done if YOU need some quiet time and need to keep them busy.

Thank you for the jars. It made our butter-making time go much faster. The kids had a great time.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Please try to attend mass on Thursday. We have so much to be thankful for in this country. We may not always agree with our law makers, but at least we have the freedom to disagree. Our country has been blessed with many resources. We have many reasons to be thankful.

Please keep Mrs. Donna Codina and her family in your prayers. Mrs. Codina is our PreK 3 aide. Her sister passed away this week.

Please remember those people who are not as fortunate as we are.

Have a fantastic Thanksgiving!!!!!!

Scholastic book orders are due November 12th.

The children of grades 1 through 4 will be working on a projects for the troops. It would help a lot if  we could get some toilet paper rolls. (No toilet paper, just the empty roll.) If each child could bring in one, it would help a lot.

Congratulations to Taylor Brennan!!! She was one of the winners in the eleventh ward Thanksgiving contest. The children had to draw a picture of a family activity. I think they all did a great job.
