Tiny Tech Tip!

New year, new you! But is your printer giving you trouble just when you need it most? Whether you're ready to organize your finances with a new spreadsheet, put a fun chore chart on the fridge, or print that list of books you've been wanting to read, a little printer maintenance might be just what you need! Take a moment to clean your printer and get it back in working order so you're ready to tackle those projects with ease.

How to do some general maintenance on your home printer:

1) Go to your printer's menu and look for "Maintenance" or "Tools" on the control panel. 

2) Select the option that is "Clean Printhead" or "Nozzle Check" or "Head Cleaning"

3) Select that option by confirming it with the buttons on the front of the printer and allow the printer to run the process. This may take a few minutes.

4) Run a test print: After cleaning, select the test print option and look for improvements in the print quality.

5) Repeat the process if necessary by following the prompts on your printer's screen. Do this until the print quality is what you need. Sometimes this will have to be done multiple times!

6) Perform a deep cleaning (optional) If a regular nozzle cleaning doesn't resolve the issue and your printer has a "Deep Cleaning" option in the settings, follow the prompts to go through this process. Note: this will use more ink!

7) Once the printheads are clean, print another test page to ensure it is at the level you need. 

Follow this process regularly to keep your printer in working order!

All had a great time at our After School Care Christmas Party where Santa and Mrs. Claus were

able to join us. We played some Reindeer Games like Christmas Cookie Face (pictured),

Snowball Grab and Christmas Tree Stack. We also had a Scavenger Hunt or two to keep the

older kids entertained. Prizes included a “Trade-a-Snack” coupon which the winners can choose

a different snack for the day instead of what is served. Thank you, Parents, for allowing your

children to stay and participate. We are already planning for next year!

REMINDER to Preschool Parents to pick up your child from the After Care Desk. This new

system seems to be working very well. Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions you may ask the ASC Director Betsy Bartow (bbartow@stpeterjc.org) (573)

Track and Field Registration is Open!

Students in 5th-8th grade may participate.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS FEBRUARY 7TH. YOU HAVE A LITTLE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS TO REGISTER YOUR CHILD. THERE WILL BE NO LATE REGISTRATIONS ACCEPTED DUE TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS TYPICALLY INVOLVED WITH TRACK AND FIELD.

Practices will most likely be on Mondays and Wednesdays, times yet to be determined. If your child is wanting to participate, they will be expected to attend at least 50% (1 night a week) of practice.  Track meets will take place various nights during the week. Students will participate in 6-7 meets for the season.  

Athletic Registration:

Please remember to contact Mrs. Bell with any of your athletic needs or questions. She can be contacted by email at kbell@stpeterjc.org or by phone at 573-636-8933 Ext. 233. Please be patient for a response, especially during the school day. 

Attached are the links to register for track and field, as well as to be a coach or assistant coach for the 2024-2025 academic school year. The deadline to register for is FEBRUARY 7th.  THERE WILL BE NO LATE REGISTRATIONS ACCEPTED!!!

Please do not duplicate registrations as it becomes tedious looking through all students who are registered.  If you are unsure whether or not you have registered your child for track already, please contact me and I will let you know. 

Below are the links but you can also find this information on the St. Peter School website under the Athletics tab, then click on Athletic forms.  

To register for track and field, click HERE

The only paperwork required to be sent to Mrs. Bell is a copy of a current physical exam form. The MSHSAA physical form can be found on the St. Peter Athletics page, and is available on the MSHSAA website as well.

As always, we are looking to add new members to the St. Peter Athletic Committee. The committee is a sub-committee of the School Advisory board and meets monthly. The AC is responsible for supervision when St. Peter hosts athletic events. If you have questions or would like to know more about the responsibilities of an AC member, or are interested in becoming a member of the Athletic Committee, please contact Mrs. Bell at kbell@stpeterjc.org.

Please be sure to return your form by Tuesday, January 21st. Once a box of candy bars is handed to your child, you will be responsible for the purchase price of the box ($60).
