e sure to check grades while we are still in the early part of the year.  Some students may not be turning in assignments and, as a result, are falling behind on their grades!  In these cases, students will give a reason for not turning it in. Also, beginning this week, students will be asked to send a note home to get signed.  Athletes must maintain a C in each class.

Parent-Teacher conferences begin Tuesday, October 20th. Dismissal is at noon, and students may be picked up or have lunch and wait in Extended Care until pick-up.  Sign up for a conference in the office.  Conferences end on Thursday, October 22nd.

Field Trip to Mount Saint Helen’s is on October 30th.  Three chaperones have signed up, and one more is needed.  Please let me know if you would like to join. 

CCA will kick off Operation Christmas Child October 19^th.  Our class will be coordinating this event with presenting a skit in chapel, recording donations on a graph, decorating the display, and collecting boxes from each class.  If you would like to help with decorations or delivering the boxes at a drop off location, please email me.
