FRIDAY EVENING'S NEWSLETTER &

PICS OF THE WEEK!

RED ROBIN DINE IN (& TAKE OUT),

MASS IN THE GYM,

BOOSTERTHON KICKOFF &

SCIENCE FAIR!

Another great week was had, and this one with the opportunity to go out on the town! Families flew to Red Robin on Tuesday night to eat out or take out in order to benefit our school. Final calculations of fundraising efforts still being determined, but it certainly seemed like a busy night for the Red Robin employees! It was wonderful to see so many of you enjoying an evening out with our school family. Thank you for your support.

Our short day on Thursday was spent attending Mass in the gym, which was followed by our Boosterthon Kick Off Assembly. As reverent as our students were during Holy Mass, they were equally as excited (or maybe more!) at the prospect of this year's Boosterthon. Click the image above to view this year's kick off video and introduction of this year's theme, Grand Adventure. Each one of the CHARACTER videos that your child(ren) will see daily in their classroom is available for viewing through mybooster.com. As always, Boosterthon does such a great job captivating students' attention, while encouraging positive character traits, and motivating them to exercise! We can't wait to see our students running laps around our gym to raise funds for their school!

Our Grades 7 & 8 students really shone brightly today during our annual Science Fair. Under the direction of their fantastic teacher, Mrs. Shaughnessy, these students truly outdid themselves this year. The students' ability to immerse themselves completely in the scientific process and then display, as well as articulate their investigations and conclusions is truly impressive.

Thank you, Mrs. Shaughnessy for stretching our students!

As we embark on the Grand Adventure of the Boosterthon, it is also time to "saddle up" and get ready for a wild week... Catholic Schools Week 2023!

Please use "road map" mentioned below to guide your family through the week.

Thank you for your continued support and have a great weekend!
