ENROLLMENT FORMS for the 2017-18 school year
are enclosed in today’s folder. Please fill out and return as soon as possible.
If you are unsure, please just state that on the form and return. We make
staffing decisions and book orders based on response so it is extremely
important to return these to school promptly. Thank you!
ASH WEDNESDAY MASS: On Wednesday,
March 1st, all students and staff will attend Mass for Ash
Wednesday. If you bring your child to school after 7:45 am, please bring them
directly to church, as the school doors will be locked.
CRS RICE BOWL: Today
in this folder you will find a Catholic Relief Services Rice Bowl. The Rice
Bowl can be easily utilized as a Lenten tool to devote our prayers, fasting,
and almsgiving to transform the lives of those most in need. There is a Lenten
calendar inside, videos available, and also an app to get Lenten inspiration
right on your phone. You will find information about all these things inside
the Bowl. PRAYER. FAST. GIVE.
GRADUATION HELP: Traditionally, the 7th
grade families sponsor and host the 8th grade graduation reception.
We are looking for parents to take charge of organizing this. We have a
checklist in the office as a reference for your use. Please contact Rosie with
your offer to help out. So far, Missy Evers has volunteered to help out. Thank
you!
SCIENCE
FAIR NEWS: The boards for your child’s science fair project
(required for grades 5-8) are being provided to your child at school at no
cost. The date for our local fair has
been set for Tuesday, March 14th. The Diocesan Science Fair is scheduled for
Friday, March 31st at Taos, for the three entries that will go on to
compete there. Remember – your child’s entry must be in one of three categories
– life science, physical science, or earth science. As you know, students will
be working on their entries in class, but some work at home will be required.
If your child wishes to use any colored ink on their exhibits, work will have
to be printed at home, due to the fact that the school does not have colored
printers.
CONGRATULATIONS
JV BOYS!! We are proud to announce that the JV boys’
basketball team took 2nd place in the JV division of the Catholic
Bowl, playing their final game against Taos on Sunday. The final score was
28-32, but it was definitely back and forth the whole game. The boys played
hard and we are very proud of them! Go Cougars!
BASKETBALL
UNIFORMS: Please return CLEAN uniform to the office, in a
bag marked with your child’s name.
