Digital Citizenship

The third week of October is Digital Citizenship Week! In our ever growing digital world, it is important for all children to learn how to use their technology safely to make good decisions online. Here are some resources, tips, and family activities you can try out to further learning of K-12 students at home.

• Update student's medical file if there are any medications or changes to note.
• Annual demographic validation 2022
• Annual Consent status update (Field trip, locker use, technology use)
• Outstanding School fees from LAST YEAR need to be paid or they will be sent to collections.

"Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.

The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself,

'O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity -- greedy, dishonest, adulterous -- or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week, and I pay tithes on my whole income.'

But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, 'O God, be merciful to me a sinner.'

I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted."

Lord, help us to remain humbled. Help us to pray with humble heart. Amen.

On October 31 st, the library will be transformed into a frightfully delightful HAUNTED LIBRARY!

Ghouls and Ghosts, witched and werewolves, will be coming to look at all the booooks in the library.

Students will be hearing a Halloween story, enjoying a ghastly tour, and maybe even dancing to some spooky music! It is sure to be a howling good time!
