Blessing of the Classrooms
Father Gadoury visited our classrooms on Tuesday. Each class, student, staff and teacher received a blessing for the new school year.
Making 10!
Second graders worked in pairs to review their "making 10" skills with a fun game. Reinforcing and reviewing skills is so meaningful when you can do it collaboratively and have fun in the process!
Good Shepherd is excited to welcome back Miss Sam, Miss Megan, and Miss Nakeena as our school counselors for this school year. Please read the letter below from Mrs. DeOliveira explaining their roles here and what to expect. If you prefer that your child do not participate please click the button below to deny participation. Thank you!
Families are cordially invited to Saint Raphael Academy’s open house, where they’ll have an opportunity to tour the campus and meet with staff, teachers, coaches, and other parents and students. Saint Raphael Academy (grades 9-12) nurtures students to become their best selves—academically, athletically, and spiritually. Students experience a unique combination of small class settings, college-style learning, and a supportive community, which shapes them into well-rounded, critical thinkers and doers. Ready to become a Saint? To learn more and pre-register for the open house visit saintrays.org.
Good Shepherd School will be offering Boys and Girls Cross Country for students in grades 6-8 and Fun Run for students in grades 4 & 5.
The season begins in September and runs through the second week of October. There is a $20 registration fee for the season for students in grades 6-8 to offset the cost of the team registration and t-shirts. Payments can be made on the first week of school.
Fun Run is for students in grades 4 & 5 and they can attend practices with the team each week, but will not be able to compete for times at the weekly meets. The fee for Fun Run is $10 to cover the cost of the t-shirt (payments can be made on the first week of school).
Rediker Access
Good Shepherd School uses an electronic informational system called Rediker that allows parents to access their child's grades throughout the school year from Kindergarten through grade 8. This online platform provides access to teacher emails and student grades in an effort to promote a clear communication tool for our families. We ask that parents click the blue link below to activate your account in order to receive access to this important school information platform.
As a reminder for all students, cellphone use during school hours is prohibited. If students need to reach out to parents, they must go to the school office during break time to make the call.
Changes of dismissal should not be made through text messages during the day as it becomes a challenge during end of day dismissal.
All cellphones and Apple Watches should be kept in your child's backpack during the school day to avoid disruption during class time. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
