🍿SNACK DONATIONS: As a reminder, students are to pack a healthy snack each day, one that is easy to eat (mess-free) as we continue to work while we snack. Donations are greatly appreciated as we often have boys and girls that do not bring snacks. Cheez-Its and Gold Fish are fan favorites! Thank you for your generosity!

😇ALL SAINTS DAY: On Thursday, October 28th, St. Francis will celebrate this special feast day with Mass at 8:30am and a parade and class parties beginning at 1:15pm. Grades K-2 will come to school dressed with their saints costumes OVER their uniform so they can process in at the start of Mass. We will then return to the classroom and change out of our costumes to continue our school day. Around 12:40, students will change back into their costumes to prepare for the parade at 1:15pm. Our second graders are encouraged to select a saint they have not yet been, as this experience will also be a learning one. We will research facts about the saints and create a nice report. The Archangels, Mother Mary, and St. Nicholas are to be avoided, as the Archangels are NOT saints, and Mother Mary and St. Nicholas are two of the most well-known saints. Students, please have your saint name picked by the end of this week so we can begin working on our research next week! This is your child's final year participating as a dressed saint, so we hope all parents are able to attend Mass and/or the parade! Thank you to our room moms for planning and organizing a wonderful first party for our students!

🏕️OCTOBER'S BOOK BASH: In Second Grade, we love to read! This month’s Book Bash celebration is called Reading Camp Out! On Friday, October 30th, students are to bring a blanket and flashlight to read their favorite books under the stars, while they enjoy a yummy s’mores snack! In order for your child to be able to participate in the Book Bash, he/she must read 15 minutes M-F, OR for a total of 330 minutes, and have a parent sign the reading log. All teacher-assigned reading must be logged as well. Parents, please total your children’s logs. If you would like to help with this month’s Book Bash, we need graham crackers, large marshmallows, and Hersey chocolate bars sent to our room no later than Thursday, October 29th. Thank you for helping your child develop a love of reading!
