"I can do all things through him who strengthens me." ~ Philippians 4:13

Shout out to everyone who voted for our Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Lori Freund, in Catholic Financial Life's Give Back Contest. Mrs. Freund was one of the top ten vote getters in the contest (but number one in our hearts). Mrs. Freund would like to THANK all those who voted!

Shout out to our Safety Coordinator, Mr. Petersen, for installing safety lockdown rollup shades for all classroom windows and doors earlier this week! THANK YOU!

Today we gathered together for our February Catholic Identity "In the Deed, Find Glory" assembly. Students learned facts about the Fondy Food Pantry. We added up the total of cans of soup collected. We will be donating a GRAND TOTAL of 218 cans of soup and $350.00 to the Fondy Food Pantry! Thank you for your generosity. The second, third, and fourth grade students will be delivering the soup to the Fondy Food Pantry on February 19th. Students also created a special "blessings" picture that will be included in bags of food distributed to the less fortunate at the pantry.

The Catholic Herald Teacher of the Year Award recognizes a Catholic educator who exemplifies the mission of creating disciples of Jesus Christ through their teaching, dedication, and personal example. The award honors a teacher who fosters spiritual growth, academic excellence and a deep commitment to living and teaching the Gospel message.

The early dismissal will allow our staff to travel to Milwaukee to support Robbi Hughes as she is honored with the 'Catholic Herald Teacher of the Year' award. Thank you for your flexibility!
