Jr. Choir to Sing In Church

Jr. Choir will be singing in church this weekend, Oct. 3rd, at 10:45. Warm-ups will begin at 10:25 in the MultiPurpose Room. Please have your child here promptly. If your child is unable to singing with the choir, please let me know BEFORE Sunday morning.

If you attend a different worship service, your child may leave the next time the congregation is singing. This will hopefully decrease the distraction of people moving during the worship service.

Thank you,

Wonderful Graduation Reception!

There were many compliments on the wonderful job that the 7th grade parents did on the graduation reception for the 8th grade! From the set up, decorations, food, serving, and clean up, it was an awesome job! I think the kids really loved the punch fountain. I hear the Bertrams can be thanked for that donation to the event. Next year it will be your turn to put your feet up and enjoy your child's graduation! A big thank you from all of the 8th grade parents!

3rd Annual Farewell Fiesta (May 21st)

The end of the year is quickly drawing to a close. It is once again time to get ready for our annual Farewell Fiesta. For those of you who have not been a part of our celebration in the past, we use this time to have a Mexican lunch together, and for the 7th and 8th grades to sign each others' yearbook and say goodbye.

I will be putting up a sign up list in the lobby this coming week. We will need donated food, drink, and paper ware. I will also need a few moms or dads that are willing to set up and clean up, since I will be in class prior to the lunch. I would appreciate any help you can offer, I cannot put on this lunch without your help. Thanks!!!

New Study Tool For Mrs. P's Literature Class

I'm very excited about a fun way that my kids will be able to study their vocabulary words, or other facts for tests. They simply need to go to quizlet.com and set up a (free) account. They are able to make up flashcards for studying, or they can use sets that I have made up for them. In order to access (My Group) they must type in the password mrsprekop. I have already put their vocabulary words, for their quiz on Monday, as a set in My Group. The name of My Group is Mrs. P's kids.

The neat thing about this application, is that they can use it to study for all of their subjects. Hope they make use of this great tool!!!
