A message for our middle school parents from...
|
Bishop Stang High School's mission is to educate students in a holistic way that honors their unique learning styles, talents and gifts. Students experience an extensive variety of athletic and co-curricular activities where gifts are shared and developed. Studies continuously show that along with parent involvement, participation in activities outside the classroom bring immeasurable value in building leaders with integrity, moral perspective and collaborative skills.
Click here to watch
our Bishop Stang High School video (created by a Bishop Stang alum, Kevin Luiz and featuring a number of our local Catholic elementary school graduates)
to learn more about how we build on this strong foundation by inspiring excellence, strengthening faith, developing leadership and building confidence in our young people.
Visit the
Bishop Stang
Open House
on
Sunday, November 6
from 1:00pm - 3:00pm
(
families of all middle school students are invited to attend). Go to

This week's adventures...
|
|
The week was kicked off on Sunday evening as many of our Moms and Sons gathered for a Lego adventure! Fun, food, Lego building and the Lego Movie made for a night to remember here at SFX! Thank you to all who attended and assisted with the event. Your participation in our school events is noticed, appreciated, and necessary for building our community and making memories.
Our upcoming week brings more excitement as our 8th graders prepare for their major fundraising event of the year. To get in the spirit of the evening, students will be invited to dress in black and orange on Friday the 28th! We will all gather that evening for some spooktacular fun! Please plan on joining us for our annual Halloween dance that is filled with fun for the whole family.
All Saints Day is our next celebration, as our students will celeb
rate our school tradition and Holy Day of Obligation by dressing as saints, attending Mass, and participating in an awesome All Saints Day Trunk or Treat. This whole school tradition has become a much loved and appreciated confirmation of the practice and appreciation of our faith.
Thank you to all of you who snipped and clipped Boxtops for Education! Your efforts
truly paid off! Collaboratively the school has already collected over 10,000 tops, resulting in a thousand dollars for our school use... easy money! Thank you for your continued participation in our school's fundraising efforts. Classroom winners of the ice cream cake celebration to be announced soon... contest ends on Tuesday. It's a close race!
Have a wonderful weekend and
God bless.

INDIAN SUMMER
ALL DONE?
Let's try this again...
Please note the seasonal shift
in our Dress Code:
- Shorts should no longer be worn. Uniform pants daily and gym sweatpants on gym days should be worn to school.
- Students should be wearing a uniform sweater to keep warm in the classroom. Sweatshirts are only to be worn on gym days. All Spiritwear (fleeces, hoodies, etc.) should be reserved for "Spiritwear days" which will be announced in advance.
Please contact your classroom teacher or the office with any questions. The swap shop is also available year-round for uniform needs.
Thank you for your cooperation in upholding our uniform policy!

Does your child have an electronic device? Do you let them enter into group chats, texts, Snapchat, Twitter, or Facebook?
Help us to help your children become responsible users of devices and follow the "golden rule" on social media!
Please check your child's devices frequently in order to assist them in responsibly navigating their way through the cyberworld.
Kids are more apt to say things that are unkind via chat than they would say in person.
It
