Message from the Principal

Dear St. Michael-St. Gabriel Families and Friends,

I’m sure I am not the only one asking how we can possibly be moving into the month of May already, but here we are. Two weeks of ILEARN testing are now complete with just one more week to go. Grades 3 and 7 have completed their exams, and aside from those taking the Biology ILEARN exam, our eighth graders are done as well. Students in Grades 4-6 still have an additional subject exam to complete next week, so we ask that they continue to bring their earbuds for testing and that they arrive at school on time. Our students have done a great job of staying focused and being at school unless they have been sick, so the number of make-up exams has been minimal for us.

Next week is Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week, so if you have a moment, consider dropping your child’s teachers a note of gratitude for their hard work this year. We will also be celebrating our May Crowning Mass on Thursday, May 4th at 8:15 a.m. Our families are always welcome to join us for Mass.

Have a wonderful weekend!

God Bless,

Mrs. Ramos

Queridas Familias y Amigos de San Miguel-San Gabriel,

Estoy segura que no soy la única que pregunta como puede ser posible que estemos moviéndonos en el mes de Mayo ya ahora, pero si aquí estamos. Dos semanas de exámenes de ILEARN ahora hemos completado y solo nos queda una semana más. Los Grados de 3 al 7 ya terminaron sus exámenes, y también aquellos que tomaron el examen ILEARN de Biologia, nuestros estudiantes de octavo grado también ya terminaron. Los estudiantes de los Grados 4 al 6 todavía tienen exámenes de materias adicionales que completarán la próxima semana, por lo tanto seguimos pidiendo que traigan sus propios audífonos para usarlos en los exámenes y llegar a la escuela a tiempo. Nuestros estudiantes han hecho un excelente trabajo manteniéndose muy enfocados y estando presentes en la escuela aunque estén enfermos, por lo tanto los números de exámenes que debemos recuperar son mínimos.

La próxima semana es la Semana de Apreciación para los Maestros y Personal, si usted tiene un momento, consideré dejar una nota de gratitud a los maestros de sus hijos por el trabajo tan duro que han desempeñado en este año. Además también celebraremos nuestra Misa de Coronación de Mayo el Jueves 4 de Mayo a las 8:15 a.m. Nuestras familias son siempre bienvenidas para disfrutar y acompañarnos a nuestra Misa.

Que tengan un fin de semana maravilloso!

Dios los Bendiga,

La Sra. Ramos

Lord our God,

Send your Spirit upon these students

and fill them with your wisdom and blessings.

Grant that they may

devote themselves to their studies

and draw ever closer to you,

the source of all knowledge. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

R/. Amen.

PARENT VOLUNTEER HOURS

This year all families will be required to complete five volunteer hours during the course of the year. There are many ways to complete these hours by attending parent meetings and conferences, but additional opportunities are noted in the attachments found below. Remember that anyone who chooses to volunteer for an event where children are present must be Safe Parish trained. We recommend working on that training now so that you may be ready to help when you would like to chaperone or volunteer for an event.

8th Grade Trash Bag Sales

It’s that time of year when we know many of you are beginning to bag up your leaves and clean out your gardens. If you are interested in purchasing trash bags from the school office, we are selling rolls for $11 a piece. All proceeds go to fund the eighth grade class trip. An initial order form was sent home with all students this week, if you are interested in purchasing any. We do sell these bags throughout the year as well, so you may consider purchasing some in the spring as well.
