Newsletter February 21st

Dear 4B Parents,

I hope you all enjoyed the chilly, windy President’s Day/ Winter Break.  I was so impressed with the amazing Valentine boxes the students created last week! Each year they keep getting more and more creative! It’s so neat to see their personalities come out in their boxes. I would like to extend a big thank you to our room mom Jennifer Chastain, Greg Chastain for his amazing photography, and all of the parents that helped out and contributed supplies for our Valentine’s Day party last Tuesday. Thank you as well for all of my sweet valentines and goodies!

This will be a very short newsletter due to the short week.

Just a few reminders:

Religion: Due to the two short weeks we have had, we will be changing the date of the Sacrament Test to next Tuesday, the 27th.  Those students that have been practicing and would like to take the test this week may do so on Friday as originally scheduled.

Social Studies: The rivers and lakes of the United States test will take place next Thursday, March 1st.  All students should have study sheets in their binders. Extra copies can be accessed here. Remember, there is also an online practice site for the test.

Math: Look for math homework on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday as we finish up chapter 5. The test will be next Tuesday over two digit multiplication.

L.A./Oral Biography: Be sure your child is reading and taking notes on his/her oral biography book. Talk with your child about what they are learning! Be sure to let me know if you have any questions about this project.

Spelling: Words for next week’s test will be in your child’s filer on Friday.

Save the Date for the HRS School Play!

Just a few uniform reminders:

  • Skirts, skorts, jumpers, and shorts must be no shorter than 3″ above the kneecap.  We’ve been noticing some shorter skirts, shorts, skorts and jumpers- please check and make sure your child’s uniform is in compliance, particularly if they have grown over the winter! 
  • Socks and tights- must be predominantly one color (red, white, navy, or black) and no leggings!  Students may wear leggings as tights under jumpers only if socks are worn that will cover the indication they are leggings.
  • On perfect uniform days ( please make sure students wear a white shirt with a red Holy Rosary sweater, sweatshirt, or vest.
  • Be sure that shirts are long enough to tuck in–and stay tucked in.  Thank you!

Have a great week!
