Red Carpet Reading Event

To encourage the love of reading, Mrs. Duarte hosted a Red Carpet Reading event opening up her classroom library for our third grade students to enjoy. The students practiced making a book stack of five books ranging from too easy, to just right, and too difficult to read books. They walked the red carpet, got a gold star with their name, and star sunglasses to encourage them to become "STAR READERS WHO MAKE GREAT LEADERS!"
         

Puzzles on the Patio

Our whole fifth grade worked together to complete puzzles…but first they had to figure out where the missing pieces were!! Way to work together as a team!
     

School Mass on the Feast of the Holy Name of Mary

On the Feast of the Holy Name of Mary, Superintendent of Schools Mrs. Barbara Stevens joined us for our first school mass of the year.  Mrs. Stevens gave a special new principal blessing to Mr. Modzewleski and welcomed him and his family to our school liturgy. Sister Mary Louise Shulas, MPF, the new Director of Curriculum for the Diocese, also joined us and blessed us with the relic of St. Lucy Filippini. Father Bob told the story of how Mr. M. received all of his sacraments at St. Augustine of Canterbury Church, and met his wife in Kindergarten as a student in our school. We wish "Mr. M" (Class of 1997) an awesome first year as our principal, and we ask Our Lady to bless and protect him and his family on his new journey here at St. A's.
