ADD
TO YOUR SEPTEMBER CALENDAR: Student Health Screenings – Sept. 26th,
by the Miller County
MARCH
FOR LIFE: Today,
the 7th & 8th graders are receiving the papers for
the March for Life, to be held in Washington
D. C. January 20 – 23rd. If you (as a chaperone) or your child
is interested, you will need to have all forms filled out, make a deposit, and
a copy of the insurance card. We are awaiting word from Sheila Suess, our
parish coordinator, for deadlines for her needs. Please note – the school is
not coordinating this event, nor is it school sponsored. We will, however,
forward paperwork/fees to Sheila, as necessary.
PIONEER
DAY is scheduled for Monday, October 13th (Columbus
Day). We scheduled it on this day because of the state holiday. We are asking
for parent helpers – both to help in the classrooms & grounds with pioneer
activities and with moving children between these activities. Please contact
school office personnel with your offer to help out. All students (and adults!)
are encouraged to dress in pioneer clothing for the day. If the student chooses
not to dress in pioneer clothing, the normal dress code is still in force.
BOOK
FAIR/BREAKFAST: Remember
the Book fair & Breakfast this Sunday, serving from 7:45 to 11:45. On the
menu is rope sausage, scrambled eggs, biscuits & gravy, coffee/juice. The
cost is $7 for adults and $5 for children 4-10, with 3 and under free. If you
did not get a chance to sign up to help, just show up! The second shift is a
little short on help – so it would be appreciated!
VOLLEYBALL NEWS: Last Saturday, the 4-5 girls lost all three against
Trinity but the girls did a great job! Their scores were: First game- 25-21,
25-16, 26-24 – so all very close!
Scores for the previous three JV games are as follows: Game 1 on 9/4 vs.
St. Stan.: 10-25, 22-25, 18-25, a loss, Game 2 on 9/4 vs. St. George: 25-16,
25-17, 20-25, a win, and Game 3 on 9/11 vs. Good Shepherd: 25-6, 25-3, 25-10, a
huge win with all three matches! Great job volleyball players – we are proud of
you! Thanks to Gina Adrian & Dakota Graham for reporting these scores!
