Guidance explanation

Happy New Year

I hope everyone had a relaxing, fun break!  Please note:  The first graders are planning and fully participating in next week's liturgy.  Please look for your child's part in today's take-home folder.

Guidance 

Mrs. Meisenheimer  will start the guidance lessons next week.  Ask your child what lessons they have covered in class.  Discussions will be centered around the gifts that God gives us:   gifts of family, self, life, love, and community.  Be supportive of the learning in guidance.  It sounds like an excellent way to learn how to get along with others in a healthy, holy, and respectful way.

Grandparent/Special Guest Mass

Catholic School’s Week is fast approaching.  One of the special days during that week is Grandparent/Special guest day.  It is currently scheduled for Friday, February 2 and will be at Holy Spirit Church.  Help your child invite an adult to join them at mass. It really is meaningful for all if your child has a special guest on that day.  And yes, we are expecting the grandparent/special guest to pick up your child from school for the mass and take the child home after the mass.  There will be a note for your child to return about who is coming on this special day in their take-home folder soon.
