Dear Parent,

            Thank you to all the parents who brought your child back to school for the 6:00 p.m. performance. Didn't they do a fantastic job? I am so proud of them! Believe it or not we put it together in two weeks.
    
        During this time of Lent we should make an extra effort to go to Sunday Mass. I know you all remember the mini talk Sr. Camillus gave you on the importance of attending Mass.  Every Monday, I will have your child tell the class about the Gospel that was read. You can explain the story to your child. A few children were excellent on Monday explaining the Sunday Gospel about transfiguration. One child actually used the word "transfiguration."

Our next spelling test will be on Friday, March 4th on the following colors.
                        Red, Blue, Green, Black, Yellow.
