Goetz, Garet Wood, Aly Haeffner, Ethan Schulte, Aliyah Talledo, Jordan Bittle,
Macy Adrian, Sara Beck, & Gracie Evers. Special congratulations to Emma,
for placing fifth in her grade, and Sara, for placing third in her grade. There
were 22 schools competing. Way to go Spelling Bee team! Special thanks to Mrs.
Haeffner, for the time and dedication involved in all the planning and practices.
FINAL LUNCH BILL: Today we are sending out
final lunch bills. This is the last billing for this school year. If you didn’t
receive one, then you are paid up through the end of the year. Please remit payment due as soon as possible.
Remember – all school fees must be paid in full by the end of the school year.
8TH GRADE NEWS: Freshman Orientation
is scheduled for Wednesday, April 25th at Cole R-V, from 5:30 – 8:30
in the Performing Arts Center. Jess Adrian will be meeting with our four eighth
graders this Friday, April 20th from 8:00 – 9:00 am, before picture
taking. Permission forms are in today’s folder for picture taking, along with
the cap & gown pmt. form.
READING COUNTS ends Wednesday, April 25th.
Your child must have reached 200 points by this date in order to attend the R.
C. trip. The date for the trip is set for Tuesday, May 8th. We will
be going to the Wonders of Wildlife Adventure Aquarium (Bass Pro) in
Springfield, MO by bus. Parents are invited to go along and may transport their
own child/ren, and ONLY their own child/ren, and then sign in at the aquarium. Only
teachers and students will ride the bus. Only students, staff, parents may
attend this trip – sorry – no younger siblings. Other plans are being
finalized. We do know that the cost for each child will be $10 for aquarium and
have not determined how much of that cost will be passed on to parent. Also,
parents’ admittance fee will be approximately $27 (plus tax?) and will need to
be paid at the entrance. This is a 10% reduction on the normal rate of $29.95.
More details to follow. In addition to the trip, your child receives one
entrance into the class drawing for a gift card for every 25 points over 200
that they earn.
STUDENTS not attending the Reading Counts trip will
remain at school, under the supervision of a classroom teacher, and do school
work, as a normal day.
ON THURSDAY, along with Mass, we will be celebrating the
baptisms of Alyssa & Eli Eickhoff. After Mass their family will be treating
the whole school with refreshments in the school cafeteria. We congratulate Eli
& Alyssa, as they take their first step of initiation into the Catholic faith.
TRAFFIC FLOW/PICK-UP/DROP-OFF: If you are
bringing students in to school, or if you wish to enter the school building, please do not park in the drop-off line in
the mornings. Please park in the parking lot, and walk in. Failure to do so
results in traffic tie-ups. Also, remember, all vehicles are to EXIT VIA THE
CEMETERY ROAD. Thank you for abiding by these policies.
